There has been an impressive drive towards innovation in stem cell protocols this year. As 2021 comes to a close, we reflect on the highlights for stem cell science over the year. It was great to see new culture media, such as B8 and “Beefy-9”, published, developments in cultivated meat science hit the news and iPSC-based therapies edge closer to the clinic. Reproducibility remains the underlying theme, and indeed requirement, for maximising the impact of these wonderful developments and at Qkine we’ll continue to do everything we can to help in 2022.

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!

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
