suspension culture

Suspension culture is a method used to grow cells in a liquid nutrient solution, where the cells are freely floating and evenly dispersed throughout the liquid. This technique allows for large-scale cell growth, making it ideal for producing biological products like medicines or studying cell behavior. Unlike adherent cultures, where cells stick to a surface, suspension cultures keep cells suspended in the medium, often with gentle stirring to prevent clumping. This approach provides a controlled environment for cell growth and easy harvesting of cells or their products.
