Cell Suspension
A cell suspension or suspension culture is a type of cell culture in which single Cell (biology), cells or small aggregates of cells are allowed to Cell physiology, function and Cell division, multiply in an agitated growth medium, thus forming a Suspension (chemistry), suspension. Suspension culture is one of the two classical types of cell culture, the other being Adherent Culture, adherent culture. The history of suspension cell culture closely aligns with the history of cell culture overall, but differs in maintenance methods and commercial applications. The cells themselves can either be derived from Homogenization (biology), homogenized tissue or from heterogenous cell solutions. Suspension cell culture is commonly used to culture nonadhesive cell lines like Haematopoiesis, hematopoietic cells, plant cells, and Insect cell culture, insect cells. While some cell lines are cultured in suspension, the majority of commercially available mammalian cell lines are adherent. Suspensio ...
