Product Description
Williams' Medium E was developed by Williams team for the isolation and maintenance of adult rat liver epithelial cells in 1971. The medium was developed during explore the culturing adult liver cells. So, the medium was supported to long-term culture of adult liver epithelial cells.

Biological Performance Characteristics
The growth-promoting capacities of Williams’ Medium E are tested in a medium containing 5~10% FBS using an appropriate cell line(s). Growth rates are examined through three subculture generations and compared with parallel cultures grown in standardized control medium. Cells are counted and growth is plotted as a logarithmic function of time in culture, and seeding efficiency, doubling time, and the final cell density are determined. During the testing period cultures are examined microscopically for a typical morphology and evidence of cytotoxicity.
