Question

These things are typically placed in incubators set around 37 degrees Celsius. For 10 points each:
[10m] Name these things whose populations may be detached from Roux bottles using trypsin. These things are fed by several substances sold through Thermo Fisher’s Gibco line of products, including DMEM and RPMI 1640.
ANSWER: cell cultures [or tissue cultures; accept cell lines; accept cell culture media or cell culture bottles or cell culture dishes; accept, but DO NOT REVEAL, Petri dishes; prompt on cells]
[10h] When culturing cells, this substance is often added to DMEM at a concentration of 10 percent to inhibit trypsin. Cell cycles can be synchronized through starvation by this animal-derived substance.
ANSWER: fetal bovine serum [or FBS; prompt on serum; reject “bovine serum albumin” or “BSA”]
[10e] Eukaryotic cell cultures can be placed within these shallow dishes named for a German bacteriologist. Zone diameters are measured in these dishes after an antimicrobial disc is placed amidst a bacterial culture.
