Cell Culture is a process in which cells are developed under controlled conditions. It is one of the important techniques used in cellular and molecular biology. In addition to providing a unique model system to study the normal physiology and biochemistry of the cell, it’s also in use in many other areas such as observing the effects of drugs and toxic components on the cell, mutagenesis and carcinogenesis research, drug development and the use of biological components (vaccines, therapeutic proteins, etc.).
There are many devices in the ARUM Cell Culture Laboratory which are given below with it’s brands and models . Our laboratory offers researchers two different possibilities. One of them is to take advantage of our laboratory by service procurement and the other way is to assign of the laboratory to the researcher with an expert from ARUM with consumables or without consumables choices.
In the ARUM Cell Culture Laboratory, no virus studies are being carried out currently and if there is strong demand in the future, it can be put on the agenda.
