Abstract excerpt
An improved method has been developed for separation of an enriched population of mouse type 2 pneumocytes, based on differential adherence and size fractionation of cells dissociated with trypsin. These cells were successfully maintained in primary culture in serum-free medium MCDB 201 supplemen...
