The number of BFU-Es obtained in standard methylcellulose assay after 7 and 14 days of culture is expressed as a mean of 4 experiments (minimum/ maximum values).

Population-doubling time of EBV-transformed cell lines calculated during exponential growth phase by the formula T = [(t1 − t0) × log 2]/(log n1 − log n0), with n1 and n0 being the numbers of cells at times t1 and t0.
