Alterations in the growth rate and metabolism of Chinese hamster cells in vitro (38530).
Chinese hamster (Don) lung cells undergo a gradual decline in proliferation (Phase III) during their lifespan in culture.  In addition, cells in Phase III utilize more glucose per 10-4 cells and produce more lactic acid per 10-4 cells than do Phase II cell cultures.
