Development of an ultrasensitive in vitro assay to monitor growth of primary cell cultures with reduced mitotic activity

Primary cell cultures, such as isolated epithelial cells, neuronal cells, or hepatocytes are characterized by a very low mitotic activity. Monitoring of small changes in cell numbers requires staining with a DNA-specific dye with an extremely high sensitivity and a low inter- and intraassay variabil...
