iPSC Characterization: G-Banding, HLA Typing, and STR

Characterization and validation of iPSCs is more critical than ever as the technology has progressed to active cell regenerative medicine and drug screening models. The heterogeneity of the reprogramming process and the clones derived make it critical to assess the genomic stability and genetic profile. Applied StemCell provides the critical validation and assessments required for authenticating and validating your pluripotent cell lines: G-banding karyotyping, STR profiling,  Loci dependent HLA Genotyping, and more.

FAQs
How long does the G-banding process take?
For G-banding how can we send you cells, live culture or cryopreserved?
G-banding: How many cells do you analyze?
Is it possible for us to ship fixed cells instead of frozen vials for karyotype analysis? If so, can you please provide the protocol?
