Description
Description: COLO 205, COLO 201 (ECACC Catalogue 87091201) and COLO 206 (ECACC Catalogue 93052620) were all established from the ascites fluid obtained from a 70-year-old male patient with adenocarcinoma of the colon (Dukes Classification Grade D). At time of isolation, COLO 205 displayed cuboidal morphology but with increasing passage the depositor reported that COLO 205 tends to display predominantly rounded cells in clumps in suspension with cuboidal cells in the monolayer.
