Hi, I have a question for someone with experience in cancer cell metabolism. I wonder how much iron ions are in cultured cells [free or other wise available for haeme synethesis] using 10% FBS. I thought that iron was in the culture media, but according to the manufacturers list of components there isn't. FBS has only a very low amount of haemoglobin.

How would the iron content in cultured cancer cells or normal cells for the matter, compare to cancer cells in vivo?

Thanks

Anette
