Objective:
To study the different influent on the growth rate of laryngeal carcinoma cell culture in vitro between collagenase type I and trypsin and to provide the experiment base for laryngeal carcinoma cell culture.
Method:
Applying the technique of primary tissue culture in vitro, twenty-one specimens which were identified pathologically as laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma were cultured. The relation ship letwech the cell growth rate and donor age, cultured methods was observed. The influent factors of primary culture, such as serum of low concentration were analyzed.
Result:
Cell growth rate were 66% (6/9) in the group aged under 60.58% in the group above 60. The cell growth rate were 58% in collagenase type I and 13% in trypsin. Serum of low concentration can restrain fibroblast.
Conclusion:
The cell growth of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma in vitro could be correlated with the culture methods, fibroblast outgrowth and microbiotic contamination are important factors in primary cell culture.
