Card 1Introduction

What is animal cell culture?

Answer

Animal cell culture is the in vitro maintenance and proliferation of animal cells outside the living organism, provided with proper nutrients and growth conditions.

Card 2परिचय

पशु कोशिका संवर्धन क्या है?

Answer

पशु कोशिका संवर्धन जीवित जीव के बाहर उचित पोषक तत्वों और वृद्धि स्थितियों के साथ पशु कोशिकाओं का in vitro रखरखाव और वृद्धि है।

Card 3परिचय

पशु कोशिका संवर्धन संदूषण के प्रति संवेदनशील क्यों है?

Answer

पशु कोशिकाएँ आमतौर पर धीरे-धीरे विभाजित होती हैं और विभाजित होने में लगभग 18 to 24 hours लेती हैं। इस धीमी वृद्धि के कारण, बैक्टीरिया की बहुत छोटी संख्या भी पशु कोशिकाओं से अधिक बढ़ सकती है और संवर्धन

Card 4Introduction

Why is animal cell culture vulnerable to contamination?

Answer

Animal cells usually divide slowly and take about 18 to 24 hours to divide. Because of this slow growth, even a small number of bacteria can overgrow the animal cells and contaminate the culture.

Card 5Basic terms

What is a clone in cell culture?

Answer

A clone is a homogeneous population of cells derived from a single parental cell. All cells in a clonal population are genetically identical.

Card 6मूल शब्द

कोशिका संवर्धन में clone क्या है?

Answer

clone कोशिकाओं की एक समरूप जनसंख्या है जो एक ही मातृ कोशिका से उत्पन्न होती है। एक clonal जनसंख्या की सभी कोशिकाएँ आनुवंशिक रूप से समान होती हैं।

Card 7ऐतिहासिक दृष्टिकोण

पहली मानव कोशिका रेखा, HeLa, किसने स्थापित की?

Answer

George Gey ने 1950s में Henrietta Lacks’ की गर्भाशय ग्रीवा कैंसर कोशिकाओं से पहली मानव कोशिका रेखा, HeLa, स्थापित की। HeLa एक अमर कोशिका रेखा बन गई और कोशिका संवर्धन इतिहास में व्यापक रूप से जानी जाती

Card 8Historical perspective

Who established the first human cell line, HeLa?

Answer

George Gey established the first human cell line, HeLa, in the 1950s from Henrietta Lacks’ cervical cancer cells. HeLa became an immortal cell line and is widely known in cell culture history.
