UCLA team claims achievement will remove regulatory roadblock to future regenerative therapies. Scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed what they claim is a fully ...
Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPSC) technologies are routinely employed in tissue modeling and the development of a range of human cell types. It is possible to derive iPSCs from individuals carrying ...
Cell culture is central to biological research, underpinning progress in drug discovery, disease modeling, and biomanufacturing. Widely used cell lines such as Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and ...
Cell culture expansion by multiple passaging steps is necessary when going from a stock culture to a Bioreactor for large-scale growth. Sartorius introduces the Mycap® CCX cell culture expansion ...
The first hES cell culture system described consisted of a layer of feeder cells, usually mitotically inactivated mouse or human fibroblasts, and a chemically undefined medium 3. The feeder cells ...
Like serum, feeder cells are a source of variability in experimental conditions and are also a concern for future transplantation of hESC derivatives to patients. A recent study successfully ...
Sub-culturing or “passaging” cells is a key step of the cell culture workflow. This process needs to be done fairly regularly and whilst it appears seemingly easy, it can be the source of small but ...
