Notes
Morphology: cell line consists of single, epithelial-like cells; Karyology: polyploid with chromosome numbers ranging from 56 to 260; Growth characteristics: population doubling time = 100-144 h; Authentication: DNA amplification fingerprinting was used to distinguish cell lines from other lines.
