A rapid procedure for the preparation of delipidized serum protein is described. The delipidized protein can be used for the maintenance and growth of tissue culture cells in a lipid-free environment. The extraction procedure greatly reduces all serum lipid classes and the delipidized protein supports the growth of a variety of cells in culture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
