Product Description :
One of the secretory proteins as in a culture medium was found to be a marker of the conversion level of ES and iPS to endodermal cells. (Published in: H. Iwashita, S. Kume, PloS ONE., 2013, 8(5): e64291)
The amount of this marker protein in the cell culture supernatant is determined by ELISA. It can be used to monitor the efficiency of differentiation of endodermal cells from ES/iPS cells. Since this kit is designed for the 96-well microplate format, it is suitable for multiple sample measurements, such as screening of inducers for differentiation or an optimization of culture conditions.
This product was developed by a collaborative work between Institute of Molecular Embryology and Genetics, Kumamoto University and Dojindo Laboratories.
RT-PCR Measurement of each Marker :
The secretory protein has a good correlation with Sox 17 and Foxa2 which are commonly used proteins as markers of endoderm differentiation.
