The effect of serum content of culture medium on the kinetics of cell growth and metabolism has been studied in HeLa S3 culture. Increasing the serum concentration from 5 to 15% in Ham’s F12 medium increased the total number of living cells by about 30%. Further increase in serum concentration resul...
