Abstract
Provided are a cell growth accelerator containing a polyphosphoric acid and a cell growth method in which cells are grown by adding the cell growth accelerator to a medium for cells of animals and plants or by using a glass or plastic cell cultivator containing or coated with the cell growth accelerator. When substances are produced in vitro using culture cells, the cell culture and the cell growth acceleration are conducted at low cost safely and efficiently by adding the cell growth accelerator containing the polyphosphoric acid to the medium for cells of animals and plants or by using the cell cultivator containing or coated with the cell growth accelerator.
