[Tumor specific surface antigen in the culture medium of a rat cell line transformed by Rous sarcoma virus]. 1977

J C Laurent, and M Aupoix, and T Greenland, and V Krsmanovic

TSSA is detected on transformed cells by a mixed hemadsorption reaction. The medium of cultures of Rat cells transformed by Rous sarcoma virus (Prague strain, sub-group C) contains a soluble factor which specifically inhibits this reaction. This factor thus possesses the antigenic activity of TSSA which is associated with the presence of a component of molecular weight 42,000 by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

D003470	Culture Media	Any liquid or solid preparation made specifically for the growth, storage, or transport of microorganisms or other types of cells. The variety of media that exist allow for the culturing of specific microorganisms and cell types, such as differential media, selective media, test media, and defined media. Solid media consist of liquid media that have been solidified with an agent such as AGAR or GELATIN.	Media, Culture
