Science 133: 1559-, 1961. | | Additional Info: | Derived from a mouth carcinoma of an adult male caucasian. The
cells have been used for a variety of studies including cancer
chemotherapy screening, cell nutrition and metabolism, tumorigenicity
and virus suceptibility. The cells carry HeLa markers chromosomes. It
was one of the early sucessful attempts to isolate and serially
propagate a human cell line directly in monolayer culture. | | ATCC: | CCL 17 | | Biosafety: | 01 |
