Uses
- Measures viability and proliferation of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSC).
- Compare MSC characteristics of naive and passaged MSCs over time.
- Combine directly with phenotypic analysis by flow cytometry.
- Replaces the colony-forming unit - fibroblast (CFU-F) assay.
- Experimental transplantation and regeneration models.
- Effects of growth factors/cytokines.
- In vivo to in vitro assay.
- Gene targeting assays.
- Replaces the CFU-F assay.
- Non-subjective, instrument-based and quantitative.
- Includes high performance MSCGroâ„¢ Medium.
- Multiplexes with bioluminescence assays.
- Combine or multiplex directly with flow cytometry by labeling the same cells in culture after performing MSCFluorâ„¢.
- Results in about 3-5 days depending on species and origin of MSC.
- Allows the cells to be detected and characterized by flow cytometry using other excitation and emission wavelengths.
- Simple, Time efficient and cost effective.
