Abstract
The effects of various concentrations of horse serum on dissociated mouse glial precursor cells in colony cultures were evaluated. High concentrations (20% or more) favored cell attachment but inhibited cell proliferation and differentiation, whereas lower concentrations (5% to 10%) favored cell proliferation and differentiation. In fetal bovine serum the cells did not attach to culture surfaces to the same degree nor did they achieve the same level of differentiation as in corresponding concentrations of horse serum.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
