Abstract
Three cell lines from Mamestra brassicae (Lepidoptera), one from Aedes albopictus (Diptera) and one from Sarcophaga peregrina (Diptera) were continuously cultured in a sterol-free medium and analyzed for sterol content. No sterols were found in any of the cell lines, whereas from cells cultured in a serum-containing medium, cholesterol was detected. This is the first instance of sterol-free animal cells.Entities:
