Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocytes Can Be Maintained in Defined Medium without Serum
1 Dec 2006
Abstract excerpt
Current procedures for the maintenance of cardiomyocytes from human embryonic stem (hES) cells rely on either co-culture with mouse cells or medium containing fetal bovine serum (FBS). Due to exposure to animal products, these methods carry the risk of potential pathogen contamination and increased immunogenicity. Additionally, FBS introduces inherent variability in the cultures due to the inevitable differences...
