In vitro cell culture is a method used for studying the behavior of animal cells in a controlled. The principle of cell culture was established when roux, an embryologist used warm saline to maintain chicken embryo for several days, thereby, coming up with tissue culture principle.
This is the first culture a freshly isolated cell culture or a culture which is directly obtained from animal or human tissue by enzymatic or mechanical methods.
