Abstract excerpt

Cultured mammalian cells are traditionally maintained at 37 degrees C, despite the fact that core body temperatures differ considerably among mammals. Considering the body temperature of the adult pig, comparison was made of porcine macrophage cultures maintained at 37 degrees C and 39.2 degrees...
