Australian manual of scientific style Start communicating effectively
This section covers:
International standards and resources
There is no international standard for cell biology terms, but Molecular cell biology (8th edition; H Lodish et al, WH Freeman, New York, 2016) has a good glossary.
Cell lines have varied names and abbreviations, and there are no standards for how they are written. ATCC provides a good list.
The Society for In Vitro Biology provides advice on terminology in the paper Terminology associated with cell, tissue and organ culture; molecular biology; and molecular genetics.
Australian conventions and resources
CellBank Australia provides a list of Australian cell lines.
The lack of standards for cell line names means that many inconsistencies occur in cell line lists (eg fibroblast, Fibroblast). We recommend setting an internal style for publications and maintaining consistency.
Terms to watch out for:
in vitro, in vivo [use roman type (not italic) and no hyphen for these terms]
