animal cell culture

Animal cell culture involves growing animal cells in a controlled environment outside their natural body, typically in a lab dish. Scientists provide nutrients, proper temperature, and growth factors to support cell survival and division. This technique is essential for research, vaccine development, and studying cell behavior. By maintaining cells in optimal conditions, researchers can observe how they function, respond to treatments, or produce useful products. It’s a precise process that mimics aspects of the internal body environment, allowing scientists to study cells in isolation from whole organisms.
