[0002] Cell culture refers to a method of simulating the in vivo environment in vitro to enable it to survive, grow, reproduce and maintain its main structure and function. Cell culture technology can transform a cell into a simple single cell or minimally differentiated multi-cell through large-scale culture. This is an indispensable part of cloning technology, and cell culture itself is the cloning of cells. Cell culture technology is an important and commonly used technology in cell biology research methods. Through cell culture, a large number of cells can be obtained, and cell signal transduction, cell anabolism, cell growth and proliferation, etc. can be studied.
