Cancer Cell Culture
Cancer Cell Culture: the process by which cancer or tumor cells are grown under controlled conditions, generally outside their natural environment. After the cancer cells of interest have been isolated from living tissue, they can subsequently be maintained under carefully controlled conditions. Scientists and doctors use this technique to test the effectiveness of treatment on cancer cells.
