Propagation in a Fluid Medium of a Human Epidermoid Carcinoma, Strain KB
Abstract
SummaryAn epidermoid carcinoma of the floor of the mouth was cultivated directly onto a glass surface in a medium consisting of 13 amino acids, 7 vitamins, glucose, salts, and 10% human serum. All of the defined components of this medium had previously been shown to be essential for the propagation of the HeLa cell, and all were used at concentrations permitting maximal growth of that cell. The new line (KB) has been grown continuously in this medium for 5 months, and maintains a generation time in the logarithmic phase of growth of approximately 30 hours.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
