Embryonic stem cells & iPS cells

ESC
Undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells have the potential for unlimited expansion with the retention of normal karyotype and the ability to generate cells of all three germ layers. Because of this ability, their use has been proposed in clinical applications, as systems for drug screening and toxicity and as a tool to study cellular and developmental biology. STEMCELL Technologies offers a range of highly specialized cell culture media optimized for maintenance, differentiation and cryopreservation of hiPSC and hESC.

Hematopoietic stem & progenitor cells

MethoCult
Hematopoietic cells can be found in a variety of different tissues through development notably the bone marrow and, to a lesser extent, peripheral blood of adults and the umbilical cord blood earlier in development. Regardless of the location, hematopoietic cells consist of a hierarchy of cells. The hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) is able to differentiate into all terminally differentiated cells found in the blood. Progenitor cells have reduced differentiation and proliferative capacities. STEMCELL Technologies provides a wide variety of media to expand and detect progenitor cells.

Mesenchymal stem cells

MSC Maintenance
In culture, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are defined as plastic-adherent, fibroblast-like cells which are able to self-renew and differentiate into bone, adipose and cartilage tissue. STEMCELL Technologies provides a range of products for the enrichment, quantification, expansion and differentiation of human and mouse mesenchymal stem cells.

Neural stem & progenitor cells

Expansion
Neural stem cells are defined as cells with the ability to proliferate, self-renew and produce a large number of functional progeny that can differentiate into neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. STEMCELL Technologies provides a comprehensive range of products for the isolation, quantification, expansion and differentiation of neural stem and progenitor cells.

Mammary epithelial cells

Mammary
Mammary epithelial cells have been shown to consist of luminal and myoepithelial cells and more recently have been shown to contain stem and progenitor cells capable of replenishing the more differentiated cell types. STEMCELL Technologies offers a variety of specialized and defined media for culture of human and mouse mammary epithelial cells.  MammoCult® is used for the culture of human mammary primary cells and cell lines as mammospheres and tumorspheres. EpiCult®-B media are used for culture, identification and enumeration of human and mouse mammary epithelial progenitors.

Prostate epithelial cells

Prostate
There is evidence to suggest that the prostate epithelium is composed of a hierarchy of cells that spans from prostate stem cells to progenitor cells to terminally differentiated cell types. STEMCELL Technologies has developed ProstaCult Medium for the culture of mouse prostate epithelial cells in the prostate colony-forming cell assay (Pr-CFC).
