What is the difference between cell clumps and tumorspheres?

04 July 2017 1 3K Report

When seen under microscope how to differentiate between cell clumps and tumerspheres. How to count them?

One would start will few single cells (filtered etc.) to avoid clumping in the culture, then you increase the confidence level of your assay that you obtain tumorospheres.
