Growing cells in vitro in a laboratory is known as cell culture. Co-culture studies are applications used in biological laboratory investigations to evaluate the interactions between two or more types of cells. Co-culturing cells could consist of, for example, human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) which include most immune cells with bacteria so evaluate how the immune response reacts to the bacterial exposure.
