Significance of In vitro
In vitro refers to experiments conducted outside of a living organism, typically in controlled laboratory environments. These studies are essential for assessing the biological activity of various substances, including testing their effects on microorganisms, cells, or biological molecules. In vitro experiments are often carried out in settings such as test tubes or petri dishes to evaluate the efficacy of compounds, assess antimicrobial activity, or examine biological responses to treatments, providing valuable insights without the complexities of living systems.
