What is cross contamination in animal tissue culture?
Cross contamination means the growth of microrganism in animal cell culture.
Do fungal cell have cell membrane?
Fungal cells have a cell membrane as any eukaryote cell does.
What enzyme dissolve fungal cell wall?
Fungal cell wall is made of chitin, so it will be dissolved by chitinases.
Do fungal cell have a cell wall?
Yes, fungal cells do have a cell wall. Unlike the cell walls of plants that contain cellulose, fungal cell walls contain chitin. See the related link for more information.
What is cryptic contamination?
A cryptic contamination is a possible result of using antibiotics in a cell culture. Some microorganisms like mycoplasma are resistant to antibiotics and will still grow slowly in the presence of the antibiotic. This means that a cell culture can be highly contaminated but does not show any visible effect except false results when the experiment is evaluated
What is the outer layer of a fungal cell?
The outer layer of a fungal cell is called the cell wall. It provides structural support and protection for the cell. The composition of the fungal cell wall can vary depending on the type of fungus.
What is the outer covering of fungal cells?
The outer covering of fungal cells is called a cell wall. It is composed of chitin, a structural polysaccharide that provides strength and rigidity to the cell. The cell wall helps protect the fungal cell from environmental stresses and provides shape and support to the cell.
Do fungal cell have cytoplasm?
All cell have cytoplasm.
What would happen if a single cell pathogen entered a culture dish?
If a single cell pathogen entered a culture dish, it may replicate and grow rapidly if conditions are favorable for its growth. This could lead to contamination of the culture dish, affecting the growth of the intended cells and potentially compromising experimental results. Containment and proper sterilization protocols are important to prevent such contamination.
What is a pure culture?
The culture which contain an organism (bacterial colony) which you are required to grow in a broth media that is a media lacking solidifying agent agar. A pure culture should not contain other bacterial or fungal cells in it except the required or cultured one
What is the difference between a plant cell and a fungal cell?
Plant cells have a cell wall made of cellulose, while fungal cells have a cell wall made of chitin. Plant cells contain chloroplasts for photosynthesis, while fungal cells do not. Fungal cells can have multiple nuclei, while plant cells typically have a single nucleus.
Can you reuse 24 well cell culture plates?
It is generally not recommended to reuse cell culture plates as it can lead to contamination issues and compromise experimental results. Using new plates for each experiment helps ensure the integrity of the culture system and the reliability of the data obtained.
