Microbiologia, UFRJ, Rio de Janeiro. | | Reference: | Cancer Res. 12: 264-, 1952;
Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med. 87: 480-, 1954. | | Additional Info: | Hela was the first aneuploid, epithelial-like cell line to be derived from
human tissue and maintained continously by serial culture. It was
isolated in 1951 from an adenocarcinoma of the cervix uteri of a 31
year-old Negro female. Since its origin, it has been one of the most
widely studied cell lines. | | ATCC: | CCL 2 | | Biosafety: | 02 |
