Applications of cell culture
Cell culture is one of the major tools used in cellular and molecular biology, providing excellent
model systems for studying the normal physiology and biochemistry of cells (e.G., metabolic
studies, aging), the effects of drugs and toxic compounds on the cells and mutagenesis and
carcinogenesis. It is also used in drug screening and development and large scale manufacturing
of biological compounds (e.G., vaccines, therapeutic proteins). The major advantage of using cell
