In all of the videos about cell cultures I've seen they always use cell that were already in a medium and transfer them to another medium.

My question is, how do you grow the first cells?

Thx a lot

You start with tissue that you're interesting in.

What type of cells are we talking about here?
Biology - The only science where multiplication and division mean the same thing.

Thanks for your answer

Regular epithelial cells.

I can't find the procedure anywhere.

This should give you a clear idea: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK26851/

Thanks, I went and checked that page and saw it was from alberts so I read it in the actual book, still I can't find the procedure itself.
