October update celebrating the launch of hyperstable FGF2-G3 for media optimisation, new media recipe quick reference resources for organoid researchers and the launch of animal-free OSM, which completes the hepatocyte differentiation growth factor set. Not forgetting us becoming an ISO9001: 2015 certified manufacturer!
Qkine and Enantis have concluded a global licensing deal for Enantis’s patented FGF2-STAB® technology. FGF2-STAB® is a hyperstable form of FGF-2 (bFGF), a core reagent for stem cell culture. FGF2-STAB (FGF2-G3) does not degrade in culture media for enhanced weekend-free stem cell culture media and advanced chemically defined systems, such as those needed in the cultured meat industry.
There is no fundamental difference between ESGRO and recombinant mouse leukaemia inhibitor factor (mLIF) protein. Both can be used for the successful maintenance of mouse embryonic stem cell (ESC) pluripotency. 10E7 units of ESGRO is equivalent to 100 µg of pure protein. Thank you to Susanne van den Brink (postdoc in Anna Bigas lab, IMIM, Barcelona) and David Turner (University of Liverpool) for sharing their resuspension protocol to prepare ESLIF media.
June update with featured publication from Austin Smith lab, Kinoshita et al - capture of mouse and human stem cells with features of formative pluripotency; introduction to our "class of 2021" new products we've made this year; explaining pioneering proteins that bring innovative growth factors to stem cell researchers and free reconstitution solution to make lab life easy
Most industries today are under pressure to switch to more ethical and sustainable animal-free alternatives, and now the trend is coming to stem cell labs. As stem cell applications accelerate towards the clinic, novel drug discovery platforms are rapidly scaled, and new transformative stem cell-based technologies such as cultured meat arise, there is [...]
Presentation by Luana Ferrara, Senior Protein Scientist Video script Slide 1: Introduction Hello! My name is Luana Ferrara and I am a senior protein scientist at Qkine. In this short video, I’ll be presenting a comparative analysis of the purity of recombinant Activin A from different suppliers and highlighting why it's important to consider the biochemical quality of growth factors for your stem cell culture. Slide 2: The role of [...]
