Differentiation & Expansion
Stem cells offer an unlimited cell source which can be used routinely to develop cellular models based on a range of differentiated cells. However, a major bottleneck in this process is in establishing reliable protocols for maintenance of undifferentiated cells, differentiation into cell-specific lineages and expansion of cells for screening.
StemCell Services offer unique culture protocols for the differentiation and expansion of stem cells:-
- Lineage Conversion / lineage transition
- Targeted differentiation using cytokines, growth factors and specific markers
- RNAi Services
- Stem cell tracking in vitro
- Cell reprogramming
- Identification of proliferation markers
- Optimisation of cell culture media and reagents
- Creation of master and working cell banks
- Testing of client's reagents/kits in a variety of stem cell lines
