摘要
A newly established human tumor clonogenecity assay - the glass capillary tube culture technique (CAP assay) to described. With this method, we observed the in vitro anticancer efficiency of several antineoplastics on human solid tumors and acute non-lymphatic leukemia (ANLL) specimen. Comparing with the conventional two-layer agar culture assay (2-LAC assay). The CAP-assay had a higher culture success rate, higher plating efficiency (PE) and shorter experimental period. The preliminary data suggesting and that the CAP assay has the potential to replace the conventional 2- LAC assay for in vitro drug- sensitivity testing and may be applied clinically.
