Nanobubbles can enhance both the proliferation and metabolic activity of microorganisms (mainly bacteria) and the growth of the whole higher organisms such as mice, fish, or plants. The critical fact is that nanobubbles of different gases can affect given cells differently. As animal cell cultures are used in industry and research studies, investigations of their interactions with nanobubbles should be carried out. This study aims to uncover whether the presence of nanobubbles improves the proliferation rate and metabolic activity of L929 fibroblasts and HL60 leukemia cells as exemplary animal cell lines of adherent and non-adherent cells, respectively. The long-term (8-day) cultures of both L929 and HL-60 cells with nanobubble addition to the appropriate medium were carried out. The medium was not exchanged for the whole duration of the culture. Nanobubbles of two gases - oxygen and nitrogen - were dispersed in the appropriate media and then used to culture cells. The density and viability of cells were assessed microscopically while their metabolic activity was determined using PrestoBlue or XTT assays. Additionally, we have performed the analysis of substrate consumption rate during the growth and activity of lactate dehydrogenase. We have shown that nanodispersion of both gases enhances the proliferation rate and metabolic activity of L929. For HL-60 cultures, reference cultures exhibited better viability, cell density, and metabolic activity than those with either oxygen or nitrogen nanobubbles. Obtained results clearly show that nanobubble dispersions of both oxygen and nitrogen positively affect the cultures of L929 while inhibiting the growth of HL-60 cells. We suspect that a similar positive effect would be visible for other adherent cells, similar to L929. Such results are promising for intensifying the growth of animal or human cells in routine cell cultures.
