One of the biggest gaps to full utilization of human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CM) is their inherent maturation status. In this upcoming webinar, Dr. Xiaoyu Zhang and Dr. T.K. Feaster discuss exciting new data from a novel high-throughput instrument that uses electrical conditioning to achieve functionally mature cardiomyocytes that can be used to assess excitation-contraction coupling and other orthogonal assays.

Cell Lines Stem Cells and Primary CellsPrimary cell cultures, established cell lines and stem cells are vital for <i>in vitro</i> and <i>ex vivo</i> experimentation. High-quality cells, optimized for your applications, alongside optimized cell substrates, growth medium and supplements, are critical for experimental success. Explore a range of cells suitable for your applications, including isogenic cell lines, competent cells, induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cell lines, fungal/bacterial/mammalian cell lines, stem cells and cancer cell lines. Find the best cells for your research in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Stem Cell ResearchStem cells have the ability to produce identical daughter cells as well as progeny, which commit and differentiate. Stem cell research has exciting prospects of biomedical applications in cellular disease modeling, pharmaceutical screening, and regenerative medicine. High ThroughputHigh throughput experiments allow the simultaneous processing of several samples. This parallelization reduces the cost per experiment and increases reproducibility and output volume of data.hiPS Cell Lines
