Flow cytometry kits for stem cell analysis
Monday, 19 January, 2009
Millipore has launched six new flow cytometry kits to make stem cell research faster, easier and more accurate. With these robust, three-parameter FlowCellect kits, scientists can easily assess embryonic and neural stem cell phenotypes at various stages of differentiation. Stem cells offer great potential for cell-based therapies and developmental biology research, however, stem cells must first be thoroughly characterised. These kits help characterisation by analysing stem cell phenotypes and tracking the progress of differentiation down various lineages. The kits are optimised for use on the Guava EasyCyte Plus system.
