FibroGRO^® Xeno-Free Human Foreskin Fibroblasts

The Simplicon™ RNA Reprogramming Technology is a next generation reprogramming system that uses a single synthetic, polycistronic self-replicating RNA strand engineered to mimic cellular RNA to generate human iPS cells.

Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) regulate developmental pathways and mesoderm/ectoderm patterning in early embryonic development.

Stem cell reprogramming protocols to generate human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) including viral and non-viral RNA based methods.

产生人诱导多能干细胞（iPSC）的干细胞重编程实验方案，包括基于病毒和非病毒RNA的方法。

This guide outlines our comprehensive selection of stem cells, media, supplements, growth factors, cultureware, and tools for stem cell characterization. These proven solutions cover a broad spectrum of stem cell and specialty cell culture areas and are backed by our knowledgeable technical support.

As the focus of stem cell research undergoes a transition from animal to human models, researchers are in critical need of validated products to support the isolation, maintenance, differentiation, and characterization of human stem cells. While many reagents designed for rodent systems can be applied to human stem cell studies, they are not truly optimized for robust human stem cell culture or analysis. This is why human stem cell researchers have always trusted EMD Millipore, the first provider of commercially available human embryonic stem cells and human neural stem cell lines, to accelerate their research. All of our human stem cell systems are extensively tested in defined media culture, and differentiated progeny are comprehensively characterized with highly validated antibodies and detection reagents.

"The successful, reliable culture of epithelial cells is critical for many areas of research, including dermatology, respiratory research, and cancer research. Because the breakdown of control mechanisms in epithelial cells is a frequent contributor to cancer progression and metastasis, epithelial cell culture is particularly important for cancer research. EpiGRO™ media formulations are optimized to provide better viability, proliferation rates, morphology and culture stability than other commercially available options. The media are provided in unique, light-blocking, temperature-monitored packaging to ensure stability and protect the media from damage by light, contamination, and excessive heat. The media do not require or contain any antimicrobials or phenol red. These components can cause cell stress and influence experimental results by masking the true performance or health of the cell culture. Phenol red acts like an estrogen and may stimulate growth independently of experimental variables. "
