The effect of alkaline pH on the cell growth of six different mammalian cells in tissue culture.
The effect of high alkaline pH on the reinitiation of cell growth was studied in six different mammalian cells. We failed to confirm the observation of Zetterberg & Engström, Proc natl acad sci US 78 (1981) 4334 [17] and Exp cell res 144 (1983) 199 [18]. Treatment of quiescent cells at pH 9.5 did not stimulate cell growth when measured by total protein/flask or increase in cell number.
