Characteristics of erythroid colonies formed by bovine marrow progenitor cells in methyl cellulose cultures
(University of Nairobi., 1982-03)
Bovine erythroid colonies containing eight to 100 erythroid cells were successfully cultured in methyl cellulose. The colonies required four to five days to mature and a direct linear relationship (r = 0.99) between the ...
