Abstract: Studies on cell culture of aquatic invertebrate get far behind ones of the mammalian and the insect. Moreover, the culture methods come from the ones of the mammalian and the insect. Many efforts were spent in the studies in recent decades and progress on the primary culture were gained. However, no continuous cell line was established besides of BGE cell line from freshwater snail. Cell culture of aquatic invertebrate was summarized here. Besides, the main problems and the future of the studies on cell culture of aquatic invertebrate were discussed.
