Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells

These cells are native human MSCs suitable for a variety of basic research studies of self-renewal and differentiation. They are expandable through 12 passages (~ 50 population doublings) and maintain strong growth with slowly decreasing growth rates at later passages. They may be differentiated into chondrocytes, adipocytes, and osteoblasts under appropriate culture conditions and are provided as 500,000 cryopreserved cells.

Optimizing your hMSC Cultures:
1) Grow cells in 1 to 5% O2, 5% CO2, with the balance of the gas content as N2.
2) Use of our MSCGroTM media is highly recommended.
3) Substrate- We recommend Greiner Bio-one TC-treated cell culture flasks or equivalent.
