STEMdiff™ Neural Organoid Maintenance Kit

Cell culture medium kit for long-term maintenance and maturation of patterned neural organoids
概要
Culture patterned brain organoids for extended periods (> 50 days) without the use of embedding matrices. With the essential components to prevent organoid fusion and retain a high yield of reproducible organoids, STEMdiff™ Neural Organoid Maintenance Kit is a serum-free cell culture medium designed for the maintenance and maturation of neural organoids adapted from protocols by Sergiu Paşca (F Birey et al. Nature, 2017). When used following STEMdiff™ Dorsal or Ventral Forebrain Organoid Differentiation Kits (Catalog #08620 and #08630), STEMdiff™ Neural Organoid Maintenance Kit allows for long-term organoid experiments for neurodegeneration research, biomarker discovery, and toxicity assays. The resulting brain-region-specific organoids have a cellular composition and structural organization that is representative of the developing human forebrain. Organoids generated with these kits can also be co-cultured as assembloids to study brain region interactions (F Birey et al. Nature, 2017).
Advantages
⦁ Reduce handling and media waste with fusion-free growth media
⦁ Obtain greater analytic sensitivity for disease phenotypes with reproducible morphology between lines and individual organoids
⦁ Eliminate matrix embedding steps with the matrix-free formulation and protocol
⦁ Easily process and section consistently sized organoids
⦁ Achieve long-term culture survival and reduced caspase-3 expression for neurotoxicity and neurodegenerative models
⦁ Combine modular region-patterned organoids to generate advanced assembloids for disease modeling and regenerative applications
