Abstract
A continuous human breast tumor cell line (BOT-2) was derived from an infiltrating duct carcinoma. The tumor cell line was grown as a monolayer in flasks, but the cells could be readily adapted to growth in roller cultures. These studies indicate that BOT-2 cells have a 16- to 18-hr doubling time and a modal chromosomal number of 63. The original BOT-2 cell culture has been in continuous cultivation for almost 2 years and has been passed 137 times. The BOT-2 cell line has been differentiated from HeLa cells by isoenzyme studies and chromosomal analysis.Entities:
