Abstract excerpt
In the current study we present a Gompertzian model for cell growth as a function of cell phenotype using six human tumour cell lines (A-549, NCI-H596, NCI-H520, HT-29, SW-620 and U-251). Monolayer cells in exponential growth at various densities were quantified over a week by sulforhodamine B staining assay to produce cell-growth curves. A Gompertz equation was fitted to experimental data to obtain, for each...
