Cellastim S – Optimizing Antibody Production in Animal-Free Media with the Supplementation of Recombinant Human Albumin

Abstract Due to the increased risk of transmitting infectious agents, antibody production is moving away from the use of animal-derived components in bioproduction. The switch to animal-free cell culture media often results in less performance which is evident in longer doubling time, lower peak cell density and reduced antibody titer. We evaluated recombinant human albumin …

Accurate nanoelectrode recording of human pluripotent cell-derived cardiomyocytes for assaying drugs and modeling disease

Abstract The measurement of the electrophysiology of human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes is critical for their biomedical applications, from disease modeling to drug screening. Yet, a method that enables the high-throughput intracellular electrophysiology measurement of single cardiomyocytes in adherent culture is not available. To address this area, we have fabricated vertical nanopillar electrodes that can …
