immunity generated against a specific target.

an enzyme which catalyses the phosphorylation of ADP to make ATP. As the enzyme is found only in the cytoplasm of the cell and is not secreted by healthy cells, measuring levels of adenylate kinase in tissue culture media is a useful assay for cell death.

a cell which stores lipids in large vacuoles.

stem cells derived from the tissues of an organism which has completed embryonic development.

a jelly-like substance derived from seaweed and used to make solid culture media.
