Comparison of Porcine Hepatocytes with Human Hepatoma (C3A) Cells for Use in a Bioartificial Liver Support System

Cells from primary porcine hepatocytes (PPH) and the immortalized human hepatoma cell line C3A are both used in bioartificial liver support systems (BALSS). In this work the viability and metabolic capacity of PPH and C3A cells cultured in different media were compared. Also, because the cells come...
