Ѳǰܱ™ - Long-Term Culture-Initiating Cell (LTC-IC) Assays

Long-Term Culture of Human and Mouse Hematopoietic Progenitor Cells

Ѳǰܱ™ media have been developed for the long-term culture of hematopoietic progenitor cells in association with adherent stromal cells. An important application of Ѳǰܱ™ is the quantitation of primitive hematopoietic progenitor cells in the long-term culture-initiating cell (LTC-IC) assay . In this assay hematopoietic cells are cultured in Ѳǰܱ™ medium with supportive human or mouse stromal cell layers and tested for their ability to generate myeloid clonogenic progenitors for several weeks as assayed by replating the cells in a using ѱٳǰܱ™ medium.

Why Use Ѳǰܱ™?

  • Establish stromal cell layers and culture hematopoietic progenitors in “Dexter-type” long-term bone marrow cultures.1,2
  • Perform LTC-IC assays in Ѳǰܱ™ media.3
  • Study regulators of myelopoiesis in long-term cultures.3

Ѳǰܱ™ H5100

Species:

Human

For Initiation and Maintenance of:

  • Myeloid long-term cultures of human hematopoietic cells
  • Stromal cell feeder layers (e.g. M2-10B4 mouse bone marrow fibroblast cell line)
