Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Viruses can be cultured in two cell cultures, the first is diploid cell culture which is developed from embryonic animal, plant or human cells that have been isolated and subjected to appropriate growth conditions. The second type of cell culture is continuous cell cultures, which are long-lasting because they are taken from tumor cells.
