Cell or tissue reversal from one differentiated type to another differentiated type of cell or tissue.
Industry:Biotechnology
Cell with two or more different nuclei as a result of cell fusion. Opposite: homokaryon.
Industry:Biotechnology
Cell with two or more identical nuclei as a result of fusion. Opposite: heterokaryon.
Industry:Biotechnology
Cells are grown on an open mesh of an inert material, which allows the culture medium to flow past it but retains the cells. This is similar in idea to membrane and hollow fibre reactors, but can be much easier to set up, being similar to conventional tower bioreactors, but with the meshwork replacing the central reactor space.

Industry:Biotechnology
Cells entrapped in matrices such as alginate, polyacrylamide and agarose designed for use in membrane and filter bioreactors.
Industry:Biotechnology
Cells in an actively dividing state are maintained in culture by periodically draining off the medium and replenishing it with fresh medium.
Industry:Biotechnology
Cells in culture in moving or shaking liquid medium, often used to describe suspension cultures of single cells and cell aggregates.
Industry:Biotechnology
Cells of the early embryo that can give rise to all differentiated cells, including germ line cells.
Industry:Biotechnology
Cells of the immune system that are responsible for cell-mediated cytotoxicity.
