Pep Talk

December 7th 2023

This month from Qkine

As we approach the end of the year, we would like to take this opportunity to thank all our customers and distribution partners for their continued support.

Here is what is coming up in the latest edition of the PepTalk newsletter:

  • Qkine high-purity mouse/rat Noggin (Qk033) is more bioactive than bacterial-expressed murine Noggin from an alternative major supplier, highlighting the importance of using highly bioactive proteins to ensure that your results are reliable and reproducible every time.
  • Learn more about our recently launched Flt3L (Qk087) helping to bolster our growing hematopoietic stem cell range.
  • Read our latest blog on liver organoids emerging as a transformative model for malaria drug discovery.

You can also meet our team in person this month at the London Stem Cell Network Workshop on December 8th. To learn more about how our highly bioactive proteins are helping to advance organoid development, be sure to speak to a member of our team during the event.

Technote

Mouse/rat Noggin with evidence for higher bioactivity

Our recent technote demonstrates that Qkine mouse/rat Noggin (Qk033) is more bioactive than bacterial-expressed mouse Noggin from an alternative major supplier. The high bioactivity and purity of Noggin ensure the reproducible maintenance of embryonic and pluripotent stem cells and the differentiation of neural and microglial cells.
