Mass culture
Mass cultureTechnique
Large number of primary cells are obtained from the animal.
They are added to a culture dish where they attach to the bottom.
These cells cover the entire bottom portion of the culture dish.
Hybridoma Technology
A method for producing large numbers of identical antibodies
(also called monoclonal antibodies) or a Hybrid cell.
These hybrid cells have got the ability to produce antibodies due
to the B-lymphocyte genetic material and also capacity to divide
indefinitely in the culture due to the presence of tumour cell
involved in the production of hybrid cells.
The specific antibody producing B-lymphocytes are then mixed with the selected
myeloma cells and are induced to fuse to form hybrid cells.
Then cultured in selective media known as HAT medium along with the drug
aminoprotein.
Mutant cells deficient or laking Tk and HGPRT cannot grow in the HAT medium
because aminopterin bloks endogenous(de novo) synthesis of purin and pyrimidin
Only the hybridoma cells(HGPRT+ and TK+) have got the ability to divide and
proliferate on the HAT medium by utilizing exogenous hypoxanthine and thymidine
via salvage pathway of nucleotide synthesis.
are
identified
using
one
of
the
method
such
as
agglutination method.
Most commonly used and most sensitive and rapid method is ELISA.
Wells which contain the antibodies specific to the antigens are
identified and hebridoma cells are isolated from these wells and
cultured(cloned).
This ensure that these hybridoma cells have the capacity to produce
same single type of antibodies.
After these hybridoma cells are muitiplied using in vitro or in vivo
method.
Uses
Hybridoma technology is used for
producing monoclonal antibodies.
Cell line
A population of animal or plant cells that can be grown in a
suitable nutrient culture medium in the laboratory .
This cell culture developed from a single cell and therefore
consisting of cells with a uniform genetic make-up.
Medium change
Indicate a more serious problem,such as
inadequate or toxic medium or serum, microbial
contamination.

Replacement of Medium
Four factorsindicate the need for the replacement
of culture medium-
A drop in pH
Cell concentration.
Cell type.
Morphological deterioration.
Subculture
A subculture is a microbiological culture made by
transferring some or all cells from a previous culture
to fresh growth medium.This action is called
subculturing or passaging the cell.
Density of culture.
Exhaustion of medium.
Time since last subculture.
Requirements for other procedures.
Suspension
Steady state
Dilution
Volume (gas exchange)
Homogeneous suspension
Bulk production
Batch harvesting
Fibroblast
A fibroblast is a type of
cell that is responsible for
making the extracellular
matrix and collagen.
Together, this
extracellular matrix and
collagen form the structural
framework of tissues in
animals and plays an
important role in tissue
repair. Fibroblasts are the
main connective tissue.
Origin of fibroblast
Function of fibroblast
Maintain the structural integrity of the connective tissue by continuously
secreting extracellular matrix proteins like
collagens,
glycosaminoglycans, and
glycoproteins.
Injury of tissue displays a proliferative stimulus for fibroblasts and
induces them to produce wound healing proteins.
Fibroblasts sometimes undergo MET to produce epithelia.
When tissue damage has occurred, the fibrocytes are stimulated to
undergo mitosis.
Place the foreskin into a Petri dish. Cut it into 4 equally sized pieces
using a scalpel.
Incubate the skin over night (~ 16 h) at 4C. Next day transfer the skin
together with the dispase solution into a Petri dish.
Transfer each tissue piece to a new Petri dish containing PBS to wash
away excess dispase.
While holding the skin submerged in PBS, gently separate the dermis
from the epidermis with two pairs of curved forceps.
If the separation does not occur easily, put the tissue back into the Petri
dish with dispase solution for another 30 to 60 min at room temperature.
Cut the dermis into very small pieces using a new scalpel blade.
Centrifuge the single cell suspension for 5 minutes. Discard the supernatant
and re-suspend the pellet in 1 mL CnT-PR-F.
Perform a cell count, and seed at approximately 4000 cells cm2 in CnT-PR-F.
