متن کاملIsolation and culture of primary adult skin fibroblasts from the Asian elephant (Elephas maximus)
Background Primary cultures from Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) allow scientists to obtain representative cells that have conserved most of their original characteristics, function, physiology and biochemistry. This technique has thus gained significant importance as a foundation for further cellular, cell biology and molecular research. Therefore, the aim of this study was to describe condi...
