MEASUREMENT OF THE INHERENT GROWTH ENERGY OF TISSUES

Alexis Carrel 1
PMCID: PMC2128488  PMID: 19868807

Abstract

1. The residual growth energy of fibroblasts is expressed by the extent of their migration and multiplication in a non-nutrient medium. 2. The residual energy of fibroblasts is related to their inherent energy and the variations of the inherent energy can be ascertained by the measurement of the residual energy.
