The Power of ISOkine Stem Cell Growth Factors

What Endotoxin, Animal and Serum Free Means to You

ISOkine™ growth factors are produced in barley, bypassing the use of bacterial or animal cell systems.

Why Does this Matter? Proteins produced in bacterial systems contain trace Endotoxins (toxins produced by the bacterial hosts). Studies show that these Endotoxins can compromise health of your stem cell based assays. Animal and human cell expression systems pose risk to your assays, because they may harbor pathogens.

They are Low Cost and Work in the Hands of our Customers: "The ISOKine mouse LIF is an excellent product! I enjoyed dealing with Neuromics. My interactions with Brett were very professional and he assured me the product was guaranteed to work; which it did." Andy Babwah, Children’s Health Research Institute

100% Animal Free FGF Basic

New ISO-kine^TM FGF basic-only 39 USD-10 ug.

Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) Recombinant Proteins are widely used as tools in Stem Cell Research. They have the capabilities to catalyze growth and differentation as well as maintain cell stasis. We continue to offer new FGFs to make sure we meet the unique demands of our cutsomers and collaborators  .

Our E. Coli derived Human FGF (146 aa) recombinant protein is our #1 seller. As Stem Cell research moves from the bench top to the bedside, there will be a growing need for 100% animal free proteins. We are please to announce we have added a 100% animal free FGF (146 aa) basic that has bio-activity comparable to our top selling options

I anticipate offering more ISOKine^TM Bio-risk free Stem Cell Research growth factors to meet growing demand. This growth will be driven by their unique advantages. These include low protease activity and secondary metabolite content and simple protein content all of which aid in downstream processing. These products also have the G.R.A.S. (Generally Recognised As Safe) status from FDA.

Stem Cell Differentiation Flow Charts

Installment #1: Mesoderm Derived Stem Cells

We would like to thank our partners and customers for their input on how to best add value to our Stem Cell Research Reagents. Based on this input, we are in the process of building a new website focused on providing stem cell technical content. Better content should help catalyze better research and drug discovery related decisions.

Here're several stem cell differentiation flow charts that map the genesis of pluripotent and multipotent cells and identify the cell types that result from their differentiation.

This chart was generated using input and publications generously provided by Dr. Henry Young, Tenured Full Professor at Mercer University School of Medicine.

I anticipate the launch date for our Stem Cell Related website to occur in early Q3 2012.

In the meantime, we will posting relevant data, publications and other information here. This will include protocols and related growth factors for generating specific cell types like dopaminergic neurons from neural progenitors. Stay tuned.
