Concepts
Step 1: Understand that trypsin is an enzyme, which means it helps break down proteins.
Step 2: In cell culture, cells often stick to the surface of a dish or flask.
Step 3: When you want to move these cells to a new dish or flask, you need to detach them.
Step 4: Trypsin is added to the dish to break down the proteins that help the cells stick.
Step 5: After a short time, the cells become detached from the surface.
Step 6: Once the cells are detached, they can be collected and transferred to a new culture dish.
