Gene knock out technology uses embryonic stem cells to introduce targeted mutations into the mouse genome, allowing the study of gene function. A targeting vector containing the mutated gene sequence flanked by homologous DNA is introduced into embryonic stem cells. Cells with the mutation incorporated via homologous recombination are identified and injected into blastocysts, generating chimeric mice. Breeding of these mice can produce strains lacking the gene of interest, enabling investigation into the effects of its absence. This technology was developed in the 1980s-1990s and its creators were awarded the 2007 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
The document discusses methods for directed mutagenesis in DNA. It describes how early methods involved random mutagenesis using physical and chemical mutagens. Modern techniques now allow directed mutagenesis through recombinant DNA methods, allowing specific mutations even at the single nucleotide level. Several directed mutagenesis methods are outlined, including oligonucleotide-mediated mutagenesis and PCR-based mutagenesis. Important discoveries in directed mutagenesis include methods developed for prokaryotes and eukaryotes in the 1980s, for which Mario Capecchi and Oliver Smithies received the Nobel Prize.
Gene cloning strategies depend on whether genomic or cDNA libraries are being constructed. Shotgun cloning is used to construct genomic libraries by fragmenting genomic DNA and inserting all fragments into vectors at once. cDNA libraries are constructed by reverse transcribing mRNA to cDNA, which is then cloned into vectors. Both library types are screened to identify overlapping clones that are assembled into contigs representing the entire genome.

This document summarizes techniques for organ culture, histotypic culture, and apoptosis. It discusses how entire organs or embryos can be excised and cultured to maintain normal physiological functions and biochemical processes. Specific procedures are outlined for organ culture, including dissection, placement on supports, and incubation. Histotypic cultures allow growth of cell lines in 3D matrices to form tissue-like structures using methods like gel encapsulation, hollow fibers, or spheroid formation. Multicellular tumor spheroids are also described as a model for studying tumor cell proliferation, drug responses, and gene expression. Finally, apoptosis or programmed cell death is summarized as an orderly cell destruction process triggered via intrinsic or extrinsic pathways.
Organ culture involves maintaining small fragments of whole organs or tissues in culture media while retaining their three-dimensional structure and spatial distribution of cells. There are several methods of organ culture including culturing on plasma clots, agar, liquid media, or raft methods. Organ culture has various applications and allows studying cell interactions in a way that mimics the in vivo organ. It is currently being used to develop replacement organs and tissues for applications such as growing bladders, lungs, and heart patches. While progress is being made, developing fully functional human organs remains a challenge.
Role of serum and supplements in culture medium k.skailash saini
ROLE OF SERUM AND SUPPLEMENTS IN CULTURE MEDIA
Serum is a complex mix of albumins, growth factors and growth inhibitors.
Serum is one of the most important components of cell culture media and serves as a source for amino acids, proteins, vitamins (particularly fat-soluble vitamins such as A, D, E, and K), carbohydrates, lipids, hormones, growth factors, minerals, and trace elements.
Serum from fetal and calf bovine sources are commonly used to support the growth of cells in culture.
Fetal serum is a rich source of growth factors and is appropriate for cell cloning and for the growth of fastidious cells.
Calf serum is used in contact-inhibition studies because of its lower growth-promoting properties.
Normal growth media often contain 2-10% of serum.
Supplementation of media with serum serves the following functions :
Serum provides the basic nutrients (both in the solution as well as bound to the proteins) for cells.
Serum provides several growth factors and hormones involved in growth promotion and specialized cell function.
It provides several binding proteins like albumin, transferrin, which can carry other molecules into the cell. For example: albumin carries lipids, vitamins, hormones, etc. into cells.
It also supplies proteins, like fibronectin, which promote the attachment of cells to the substrate. It also provides spreading factors that help the cells to spread out before they begin to divide.
It provides protease inhibitors which protect cells from proteolysis.
It also provides minerals, like Na+, K+, Zn2+, Fe2+, etc.
It increases the viscosity of the medium and thus, protects cells from mechanical damages during agitation of suspension cultures.
It also acts a buffer.
Due to the presence of both growth factors and inhibitors, the role of serum in cell culture is very complex.
Unfortunately, in addition to serving various functions, the use of serum in tissue culture applications has several drawbacks .
Scale up means increasing the quantity or volume of cell culture. For animal cells, the scale up strategies are dependent upon cell types or i.e. whether the cells requires matrix for attachment and growth ( adherent cell culture) or grows freely in suspended form in aqueous media. The scaling up principle for adherent cells are just to increase surface area for attachment while for suspension culture is to increase culture volume. This presentation enlightens the reader about different methods of scaling up of cells culture. Readers are also provided with sample questions for better understanding
This document discusses cell culture contamination, including sources, types, signs, and methods for monitoring and preventing contamination. Common sources of contamination include failed sterilization of equipment, airborne particulates, and poorly maintained incubators. Major types of microbial contaminants are bacteria, molds, mycoplasma, yeasts, and viruses. Signs of contamination vary but may include cloudy cultures, pH changes, and visible microbes under a microscope. Proper aseptic technique and regular monitoring of cell cultures can help reduce contamination. Cross-contamination between cell lines must also be avoided.
The document provides instructions for setting up a cell culture laboratory, including key considerations like budget, space, and equipment. It discusses necessary rooms and areas like media preparation, culture, dissection/sterilization, storage, and lists important equipment such as CO2 incubators, biosafety cabinets, centrifuges, microscopes, and PCR machines. It also provides details on setting up and maintaining specific areas and equipment.
Secondary cell cultures refer to cells that have been subcultured, or transferred, from a primary culture to a new culture vessel. Subculturing provides fresh nutrients and space for continuously growing cell lines. Cell lines can be finite or continuous depending on their lifespan in culture. Characterization of cell lines is important to confirm identity and purity through analysis of biochemical, genetic, and chromosomal parameters such as karyotyping.

Organ culture technique in synthetic media- animal tissue culture neeru02
Organ culture is a development from tissue culture that allows for the culture of pieces of organs on artificial media to accurately model organ functions in various states. Special culture methods are required as organs require high oxygen levels. Organ pieces can be cultured on plasma clots, agar, raft methods using lens paper or rayon, grid methods, or in liquid media using supports like gauze or rafts. Organ culture faces limitations as results may not match whole animal studies due to lack of in vivo drug metabolism.
The document discusses organogenesis, which is the development of adventitious organs or primordial from undifferentiated plant cell mass through differentiation. It describes the process, including dedifferentiation and redifferentiation stages. There are two types of organogenesis - direct organogenesis which does not involve callus formation, and indirect organogenesis which involves callus formation. Organogenesis is used in plant tissue culture to regenerate plants through shoot or root cultures and is influenced by factors like explant source and size, plant growth regulators, and culture conditions. It has commercial applications in micropropagation of plants.
SAGE (Serial analysis of Gene Expression)talhakhat
SAGE (Serial Analysis of Gene Expression) is a technique that allows for the rapid and comprehensive analysis of gene expression patterns in a given cell population. It works by isolating mRNA, synthesizing cDNA, ligating short sequence tags to the cDNA, and then counting the number of times each tag is observed to quantify gene expression levels. The tags are concatenated and sequenced to generate vast amounts of data that must be analyzed computationally to identify which genes particular tags correspond to and to compare expression profiles between cell types. SAGE provides an overview of a cell's complete transcriptional activity and has been applied to study differences in cancer vs normal cells and to identify targets of oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes.
Single cell culture involves isolating single cells from plant tissue and culturing them on a nutrient medium. There are mechanical and chemical methods for isolation. Cells can be cultured using various techniques like microchamber, microdroplet, or nurse culture techniques. The paper raft nurse culture places isolated cells on nutrient-soaked paper placed on actively growing callus tissue. Single cell culture is important for fundamental studies, mutation analysis, and industrial applications like crop improvement and production of medicinal compounds.

It also describes culture conditions, types of cell lines (finite vs continuous), nomenclature, selecting appropriate cell lines based on experimental needs, biosafety levels, cell culture hood and incubator setup. The document is intended as an introduction to cell lines and basic cell culture techniques.
Cell lines are established cell cultures that can proliferate indefinitely in vitro. They are used in basic research and early drug development studies. Cell lines are categorized as finite or continuous based on their lifespan. Finite cell lines have limited proliferation while continuous cell lines can proliferate indefinitely. Characterization of cell lines is important to determine their species of origin, tissue of origin, and genetic stability. Common cell lines used in research include human cell lines like HeLa, mouse cell lines like 3T3 fibroblasts, and rat cell lines. Cell lines are useful for investigating disease pathways and developing therapies.
Cultured animal cells have many important applications. They can be used as (1) model systems to study basic cell biology and interactions between cells and pathogens, (2) for toxicity testing of new drugs and chemicals, and (3) in cancer research to study normal and cancerous cell differences. Animal cell culture is also used for virology research, manufacturing of vaccines and proteins, genetic counseling, genetic engineering of cells, and gene and drug screening and development. Proper growth media, aseptic techniques, cryopreservation, and applications in various fields make animal cell culture a valuable tool.
Cell culture involves growing cells under controlled conditions outside of their natural environment. A cell line is a permanently established cell culture that will proliferate indefinitely. Primary cell cultures have a finite lifespan before senescence, while continuous cell lines are immortalized, aneuploid, and tumorigenic. When selecting a cell line, factors like species, growth characteristics, stability, and phenotypic expression should be considered depending on the experimental purpose. Common cell lines are derived from tissues like liver, kidney, lung, and ovary and are used for applications such as drug screening, bioassays, and production of vaccines and therapeutic proteins.
Contains everything about cell culture and cell culture laboratory. The data has been collected from various sources and piled up to make this presentation.
The document discusses cell lines, including their origins from primary cell cultures. A cell line is permanently established and will proliferate indefinitely, unlike a cell strain which has finite divisions. Cell lines can be finite or continuous. Continuous cell lines are immortalized through spontaneous or induced genetic changes. Common sources of cell lines include ATCC, ECACC, and NCCS. Selection of cell lines considers species, growth characteristics, stability, and availability. Cell lines must be maintained under controlled conditions like temperature and pH. Applications include drug screening and cancer research. Commonly used cell lines include HEK293 derived from embryonic kidney cells.
For decades, cell lines have played a critical role in scientific developments. In most cases, researchers just got data generated from cell lines. However, due to some weaknesses of cell lines, scientists become increasingly cautious about these generated results. But now the game has changed! Primary cells now are believed to be a more biologically relevant tool than cell lines for studying human and animal biology. And we design this primary cell culture guide aimed at showing new investigators the basic principles of primary cell and some practical culture skills.
This document provides information on cell culture and the establishment of cell lines.

This presentation will help to understand the basics of mammalian cell culture. I have also covered the difference between adherent and suspension cell lines. I have also included the advantages and disadvantages of the cell line.
There are several types of immortalized cell lines that are important research tools. Some cell lines were derived from cancers and underwent mutations that allowed unlimited proliferation, similar to cancerous cells. Other normal cell lines can be immortalized through intentional induction of mutations. The best known immortalized cell line is HeLa, which was derived from a cervical cancer in 1951 and was the first human cells successfully cloned. Vero cells come from monkey kidney cells and are widely used as hosts for growing viruses and parasites. Immortalized cell lines have undergone genetic changes that allow unlimited division, unlike primary cells which eventually senesce and stop dividing.
The term ‘Tissue culture ’ refers to the culture of whole organism, tissue fragments as well as dispersed cell on a suitable nutrient medium. Tissue culture is divided into the two broad groups, i) cultures that facilitates cell to cell interactions and signaling among cell and allow their study and ii) those in which cell to cell interactions and signaling are missing. The first group consist of three distinct types of culture system, viz., (i) Organ culture( in this, whole embryonic organs or small tissue fragments are cultured in vitro in such a manner that they retain their tissue architecture, i.e., the characteristic distribution of various cell types in the given organ) (ii) Histotypic cultures ( in this, individual cell lineages are first isolated from organ, purified and multiplied; they are grown separately to high density in three-dimensional matrix to study interactions and signaling among homologous cells. (iii) Organotypic cultures ( in this, cells of different lineages are mixed together in specific ratios and spatial relationships in order to recreate a component of concerned organ). The second group consists of cell culture either as monolayer (cells are obtained either by enzymatic or mechanical dispersal of tissues into individual cells or by spontaneous migration of cells from an explants or as suspension culture.
This document provides an introduction to animal cell culture by Dr. Anu P. Abhimannue. It discusses the history and development of animal cell culture from the early 20th century. It describes different types of animal cell culture such as primary versus secondary culture and finite versus continuous cell lines. It also discusses various cell culture methods like monolayer, suspension, types of culture vessels used and morphology of cultured cells. The document provides advantages and limitations of animal cell culture techniques.
Cell culture involves growing cells under controlled conditions. Key developments include the use of antibiotics to prevent contamination, trypsin to detach adherent cells for subculturing, and defined culture media. Cells are typically maintained through serial passaging when confluent. Cells can be cryopreserved for long-term storage in liquid nitrogen. Common cell lines include HeLa, HEK293, MCF-7, and Vero cells. Contaminants include mycoplasma, bacteria, and cross-contamination between cell lines. Basic equipment includes laminar flow hoods, incubators, refrigerators, and microscopes.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

How to Build a Module in Odoo 17 Using the Scaffold MethodCeline George
Odoo provides an option for creating a module by using a single line command. By using this command the user can make a whole structure of a module. It is very easy for a beginner to make a module. There is no need to make each file manually. This slide will show how to create a module using the scaffold method.
2. DEFINITION
A cell line is a permanently established cell culture that
will proliferate indefinitely given appropriate fresh medium and space
The term cell line refers to the propagation of culture after the first
subculture.
In other words, once the primary culture is sub-cultured, it becomes
a cell line. A given cell line contains several cell lineages of either
similar or distinct phenotypes.
7. Finite Cell Lines :
The cells in culture divide only a limited number of times,
before their growth rate declines and they eventually die.
The cell lines with limited culture life spans are referred to as
finite cell lines.
The cells normally divide 20 to 100 times (i.e. is 20-100
population doublings) before extinction.
The actual number of doublings depends on the species, cell
lineage differences, culture conditions etc.
The human cells generally divide 50-100 times, while murine
cells divide 30-50 times before dying.
8. ContinuousCell Lines:
A few cells in culture may acquire a different morphology and get
altered. Such cells are capable of growing faster resulting in an
independent culture.
The progeny derived from these altered cells has unlimited life
(unlike the cell strains from which they originated). They are
designated as continuous cell lines.
The continuous cell lines are transformed, immortal and
tumorigenic.
The transformed cells for continuous cell lines may be obtained
from normal primary cell cultures (or cells strains) by treating them
with chemical carcinogens or by infecting with oncogenic.
11. Nomenclature of Cell Lines:
It is a common practice to give codes or designations to cell lines for
their identification. For instance, the code NHB 2-1 represents the cell
line from normal human brain, followed by cell strain (or cell line
number) 2 and clone number 1. The usual practice in a culture
laboratory is to maintain a log book or computer database file for each
of the cell lines.
While naming the cell lines, it is absolutely necessary to ensure that
each cell line designation is unique so that there occurs no confusion
when reports are given in literature. Further, at the time of
publication, the-cell line should be prefixed with a code designating
the laboratory from which it was obtained e.g. NCI for National Cancer
Institute, Wl for Wistar Institute.

13. Top 5 of the most commonly used cell lines!
Number 5: Sf9 insect epithelial cells
Derived from the ovaries of the fall armyworm moth (Spodoptera frugiperda),
these cells are probably related to all insect cell lines in labs worldwide.
Sf9cells can be cultured as adherent or suspension cells. Most cell lines are
adherent cells, which grow only on the surfaces of culture vessels.
Sf9/baculovirus systems are typically preferred for large-scale protein
production including industrial manufacture of mammalian proteins, including
the vaccine for cervical cancer CERVARIX
Number 4: Chinese hamster ovary cells
Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHOs) are clearly ovary-derived cells, but this time, we
are talking mammalian cells.
Similarly to Sf9 cells, they can exist both as adherent or suspension cells in culture.
CHO cells are used in various applications such as recombinant protein production and
studies of the epidermal growth factor receptor
14. Number 3: Insert your favorite immortal human cell line here!
But depending on your favorite object of study, you may end up using a
collection such as those from the NCI-60 NCI-60 Human Tumor Cell
Lines Screen (5).
Alternatively, you might be interested in working with Jurkat or HL-60
(white blood cells), MCF-7 (breast cancer), Saos-2 cells (bone cancer),
PC3 (prostate cancer) or many others.
Number 2: HEK 293
HEK293, or human embryonic kidney-derived epithelial cells, are arguably one of the
most widely used cell lines in cell biology research.
HEK293 is a rapidly dividing, robust line cell with a good reputation for post-
translational modification of its heterologously expressed proteins. Therefore, it’s
hardly surprising that it is often the cell line of choice in transient and stable
transformation experiments, for protein expression and production, and even in
electrophysiological experiments
15. Number 1: HeLa

19. The most commonly used terms while dealing with cell lines are
explained below.
Splitratio :
The divisor of the dilution ratio of a cell culture at subculture.
For instance, when each subculture divided the culture to half, the
split ratio is 1: 2.
Passage number:
It is the number of times that the culture has been sub-
cultured.
Generation number:
It refers to the number of doublings that a cell population
has undergone. It must be noted that the passage number and
generation number are not the same, and they are totally different.
20. Selectionof CellLines:
Several factors need to be considered while selecting a cell line.
Some of them are briefly described:
1. Species:
In general, non-human cell lines have less risk of biohazards, hence preferred.
However, species differences need to be taken into account while extrapolating the
data to humans.
2. Finiteor continuouscelllines:
Cultures with continuous cell lines are preferred as they grow faster, easy to clone
and maintain, and produce higher yield. But it is doubtful whether the continuous
cell lines express the right and appropriate functions of the cells. Therefore, some
workers suggest the use of finite cell lines, although it is difficult.
3. Normal or transformedcells:
The transformed cells are preferred as they are immortalized and grow rapidly.
4. Availability:
The ready availability of cell lines is also important. Sometimes, it may be necessary
to develop a particular cell line in a laboratory.
21. 5.GROWTHCHARACTERISTICS
The following growth parameters need to be considered:
i. Population doubling time
ii. Ability to grow in suspension
iii. Saturation density (yield per flask)
iv. Cloning efficiency.
6. Stability:
The stability of cell line with particular reference to cloning,
generation of adequate stock and storage are important.
7. Phenotypic expression:
It is important that the cell lines possess cells with the right
phenotypic expression.
22. MAINTANENCE OF CELL CULTURE
For the routine and good maintenance of cell lines in culture (primary culture or subculture) the
examination of cell morphology and the periodic change of medium are very important.
CellMorphology:
• The cells in the culture must be examined regularly to check the health status of the cells, the
absence of contamination, and any other serious complications (toxins in medium, inadequate
nutrients etc.).
ReplacementofMedium:
• Periodic change of the medium is required for the maintenance of cell lines in culture, whether
the cells are proliferating or non-proliferating. For the proliferating cells, the medium need to be
changed more frequently when compared to non-proliferating cells. The time interval between
medium changes depends on the rate of cell growth and metabolism.
• For instance, for rapidly growing transformed cells (e.g. HeLa), the medium needs to be changed
twice a week, while for slowly growing non-transformed cells (e.g. IMR-90) the medium may be
changed once a week.
23. Thefollowingfactorsneedto be consideredforthereplacementof themedium:
1. Cellconcentration:
The cultures with high cell concentration utilize the nutrients in the medium faster than those with
low concentration; hence the medium is required to be changed more frequently for the former.
2. A decreaseinpH:
A fall in the pH of the medium is an indication for change of medium. Most of the cells can grow
optimally at pH 7.0, and they almost stop growing when the pH falls to 6.5. A further drop in pH
(between 6.5 and 6.0), the cells may lose their viability.
The rate of fall in pH is generally estimated for each cell line with a chosen medium. If the fall is
less than 0.1 pH units per day, there is no harm even if the medium is not immediately changed.
But when the fall is 0.4 pH units per day, medium should be changed immediately.
3. Celltype:
Embryonic cells, transformed cells and continuous cell lines grow rapidly and require more
frequent sub-culturing and change of medium. This is in contrast to normal cells, which grow
slowly.
4. Morphologicalchanges:
Frequent examination of cell morphology is very important in culture techniques. Any
deterioration in cell morphology may lead to an irreversible damage to cells. Change of the
medium has to be done to completely avoid the risk of cell damage.
