ACTIVE RETINOIC ACID FREE CULTURE MEDIUM FOR AVIAN TOTIPOTENTIAL EMBRYONIC CELLS

摘要

A culture medium for avian totipotential embryonic cells comprising an avian cell culture medium is disclosed. The culture medium is characterised in that it comprises elements complementary to said avian cell culture medium, the complementary elements being selected from the group which comprises cytokines, fibroblast growth factors, insulin-like growth factors and stem cell growth factors, and in that it is substantially free of active retinoic acid. A method for culturing avian totipotential embryonic cells, and the resulting products, are also disclosed.
