cell matrix or tissue Explanation: If the text is about cell cultures, then, of course, it is cell matrix. Otherwise you can also use "tissue". |

cell strain Explanation: I don't think that tapis stands for matrix. I would rather go for strain that,according to me, is closer to the meaning that is: base or bed Harrap's shorter dictionary |

lawn OR lawn of cells Explanation: VOIR LES DÉFINITIONS ET LE CONTEXTE CI-DESSOUS: Plaques are clear zones formed in a lawn of cells due to lysis by phage. At a low multiplicity of infection (MOI) a cell is infected with a single phage and lysed, releasing progeny phage which can diffuse to neighboring cells and infect them, lysing these cells then infecting the neighboring cells and lysing them, etc, ultimately resulting in a circular area of cell lysis in a turbid lawn of cells tapis n m Contexte : Les cellules en culture forment habituellement, dans le flacon de culture, ce qu'on nomme un tapis cellulaire, c'est-à-dire un horizon monostratifié de cellules. Lorsque la culture a atteint les limites de la surface du récipient recouverte par le milieu, la croissance s'arrête : on dit qu'il y a inhibition de contact. Différents agents chimiques, physiques ou biologiques (composés cancérigènes, rayonnements, virus) modifient cet état de choses : la croissance continue jusqu'à épuisement du milieu; les cellules grimpent les unes sur les autres, formant, non plus un tapis monostratifié, mais un massif épais et bourgeonnant. Note : ((Domaines d'emploi indiqués dans la source citée :)) biochimie, biologie moléculaire. [1986] BT18065797 lawn Contexte : The most striking form of phage infection is that in which all of the infected bacteria are destroyed in the process of the formation of new phage particles. This results in the clearing of a turbid liquid culture as the infected cells lyse. When lysis occurs in cells fixed as a lawn of bacteria growing on a solid medium, it produces holes, or areas of clearing, called plaques. These represent colonies of bacteriophage. The size and other properties of the plaque vary with individual viruses and host cells. GDT 2001, Internet |

cell layer Explanation: If you go to www.ccne-ethique.org you can find opinion 42. tapis cellulaire is translated as cell layer. to verify go to avis 42. each avis has an official english translation. as this is an official french government site, I think the translations are very reliable Reference: http://www.ccne-ethique.org/francais/avis/a_42.htm Reference: http://www.ccne-ethique.org/englisn/opinion/0-42.htm |
