Proof of Concept to Isolate and Culture Primary Muscle Cells from Northern Elephant Seals to Study the Mechanisms that Maintain Aerobic Metabolism Under the Hypoxic Conditions of Breath-Hold Diving.

摘要

The long-term goal is to isolate and culture primary muscle cells from the swimming muscles of northern elephant seals. The objective is to develop a protocol for the isolation and culturing of primary muscle cells from northern elephant seals.
