Karyotyping and Teratoma Formation
During iPSC reprogramming unstable genetic elements can easily cause an abnormal karyotype. First, take advantage of our footprint-free reprogramming methods to avoid genetic instability. Then let iGentBio do the karyotyping for you.
Teratoma formation to all three germ layers is considered the gold standard test of stem cell pluripotency. Unfortunately this assay is technically challenging and requires animal facilities and IACUC approved protocols. At iGentBio we do all of our animal handling in AALAC approved facilities. Furthermore, we inject into the kidney capsule to give you a higher probability of teratoma formation. Contact us today for a personalized quote.
