Abstract
Human tumor cell lines, derived from cancers of the colon, ovary, and cervix, were grown in liquid tissue culture media and media made semisolid with agar (Bacto + deoxycholate lactose agar), agarose [LE, ME, Sea Plaque and Sea Prep (15/45)], and methyl cellulose. The effects of each agent on overall cell proliferation and rate of overall cell proliferation were examined. The agents, used to make media semisolid, were observed to inhibit or, in some cases, enhance cell growth in a fashion that was characteristic of individual cell lines. These phenomena may be of consequence to the optimization of nutrient media for primary tumor cell preparations.
