Table 2 The effect of seeding density on the growth of testis cells in culture

From: Optimization of culture conditions for short-term maintenance, proliferation, and colony formation of porcine gonocytes

Cell seeding density

Maximum confluency

Confluency at days

  1. The results are mean ± SEM
  2. *The results from 1.0 × 105 seeding density group were excluded from statistical analysis as the cells did not reach 90% confluency
  3. Independent sample t test was used for statistical analyses
  4. abWithin each column, data with different superscripts differ significantly (P < 0.05). n = 12 replications
