Less time preparing cells - On-demand iPSC production - HiPSC expansion - Differentiation of iPSC-derived cells - Disease models - Multi-Cell Differentiation - Reproducible differentiation - Many lines in parallel - Multiple mutations from single donor - Single cell type from multiple donors - Efficient - Fast expansion time - Resource-friendly - Fewer steps - Higher productivity - Unprecedented Scale - Massively parallel production - Large quantities of iPSC-derived cells Can make 1 Million to 1 Billion or more HiPSC per lot - expanded in a week - Cost-efficient, modular, scale-able protocol
3D CELL BIOLOGY & BIOPRINTING - Tissue Engineering - Spheroid Fusion - Cyfuse Biomedial Partnership - Regenova Bio 3D Printer - Three Dimensional - Robotic - Tissue Design Software - Skin Engineering - 3D Skin Model - 3D Airway Model - 3D Cell Culture - 3D Cell Models - Blood Vessel Generation
3D Cell-Based Tissue Models - Our 3D Cell Models include Airway, with Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells differentiated into a pseudostriated epithelium, and Skin, where Human Epidermal Keratinocytes are differentiated into stratified squamous epithelium. Both serve as highly physiological three dimensional tissue models for in vitro studies, providing excellent cellular systems to study epithelial function and disease. The models, created by growing cells on inserts with a liquid/air interface and specialized culture conditions, are offered pre-formed or as a kit containing all necessary materials and detailed instructions.
Cellular Disease Models - Primary cells and paired media have been optimized for pharmaceutical drug discovery efforts addressing genetic and autoimmune disorders, injury, inflammation and more. These cellular disease models include Asthma, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Osteoarthritis (OA), Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Type II Diabetes (T2D). We are also happy to prepare custom disease cell panels for your specific screening requirements.
RNA ISOLATION - Total RNA - Poly A+RNA - RNA Purification - Cell RNA - Tissue RNA - Specific Amounts (ug) per vial - RNA Quality Control: Distinct 28S & 18S ribosomal RNA, no visible Genomic DNA contamination, RT-PCR amplification, Northern Blot analysis, Primers designed to detect mRNA for genes of interest to confirm cell phenotype
Transfection - CytofectT Transfection Kits contain a new class of unique chemical reagent formulations specifically optimized for transfecting primary cells, all in one complete, affordable system, with high efficiency and low toxicity.
