–Mammalian cell cultures–Bacterial and Fungal Cultures
(v) Plant tissue culture

Basic requirements for cell culture
Source of cell material A suitable container for cell growth Growth medium containing essential
nutrients Opportunity for gas exchange Control of abiotic factors e.g. temperature
and pH Avoidance of contamination

Aseptic techniques
Methods employed to prevent contamination– E.g. sterilisation of equipment, media (substance
in which the cells grow) and surfaces Autoclaving = heating substance to a high temperature
(usually 121oC) under high pressure to kill microbes and their spores.
Swabbing with disinfectant or alcohol Running equipment through a flame before use.
– Minimising exposure of equipment to the air

Culturing Mammalian Cells
Source of Cell material– Tissue samples are treated with a proteolytic
(protein digesting) enzyme e.g trypsin to separate cells from each other
– Normal cells die after a finite number of divisions when grown in culture, making long-term culturing difficult.
– For this reason cell lines are often prepared from cancer cells or cells that have been genetically modified to become immortal.

Culturing Mammalian Cells cont…
Suitable container– Mammalian cells require a solid surface for growth in
culture

Culturing Mammalian Cells cont…
Growth medium– Is complex– Minimum growth medium contains balanced salt
solution, amino acids, vitamins and glucose.– Additions are made to minimal growth media
according to the requirements of the cells.– Antibiotics may be added to prevent
contamination– Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS) (or other animal
serum) is essential to promote cell proliferation (division)

Culturing Mammalian Cells cont…
Events in culturing mammalian cells– Growth medium is inoculated with cell source– Cells adhere to the surface of the container– Cells spread out and then divide to form a
monolayer– When the entire surface is covered with cells just
touching one another, they are said to be confluent or to have reached confluence.

Cells spreading out and dividing Confluent cells
Note: If a single cell was isolated and used to inoculate the culture, then all of these cells will be clones of one another.

Culturing Bacteria and Fungi
Source of Cell Material– Commercially bought– Isolated from environment
Suitable Container– Bacteria and liquid can be grown in solid or liquid
medium and do not need a solid surface to adhere to.

Culturing Bacteria and Fungi cont.
Growth Medium– Is basic– Most microbes only require a source of carbon
(usually a sugar for energy and to make basic cell components)
– Some require special additives

Culturing Bacteria and Fungi cont.
Events in growing Bacteria and Fungi– After an initial lag phase microbes will undergo
exponential growth.– Cultures then enter a stationary phase as
nutrients become limited and wastes accumulate.– Death will eventually occur if not sub-cultured
