Products for Regenerative Medical Research
Technical Information
BioPAL offers a panel of unique products to aid researchers develope cellular-based products and therapies. The first is a cell purification product and the second is a line of magnetic reagents designed to label cells.
Panel 1: Viahance is designed to enhance the viability ratio of live to dead cells in cell culture through removal of dead cells and cellular debris using magnetic negative selection. Viahance removes dead cells, stripped nuclei and free oligonucleotides. Competing dead cell separation kits only remove dead cells. The ability to remove dead cells, stripped nuclei, and free oligonucleotides from cell culture will increase cell culture viability, improve data quality and favorably impact downstream results. As important, Viahance is provided autoclaved and does not contain foreign proteins, such as Annexin-V. As cellular-based platforms move into clinical practice, the use of sterile and pyrogen free reagents will prove to be a regulatory necessity.
Panel 2: Molday ION family of cell labeling and tracking products are ultrasmall nanoparticles having a magnetite core. The surface of these particles are engineered to enable rapid and efficient cellular uptake. Once labeled, cells can be tracked using MRI imaging technology. Because labeled cells are magnetic, targeting and retention of therapeutic cells can be achieved using magnetic fields. These products are provided autoclaved.
