Whatever your experimental needs, our dependable solutions provide vital support for you and your HSC research. With delicate HSC isolation protocols for your cell lines and the use of our MACS® MicroBead Technology, the potential for reliable retroviral transduction, in vitro expansion, culture media and phenotypic flow cytometric analysis ensuring an accurate multiparameter analysis of intracellular markers, provides seamless integration and reliability.
MACS® MicroBead Technology provides a broad range of marker-specific, magnetic cell enrichment solutions applicable for stem cell isolation. CD34 is a well-established marker of human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, which can be targeted for magnetic enrichment of this cell type. The CD34 MicroBead Kit UltraPure contains MicroBeads directly conjugated to CD34 antibodies for magnetic labeling of CD34-expressing cells from peripheral blood, cord blood, bone marrow, or apheresis harvest.
CD34 MicroBead Kit UltraPure, human
- Easy one-step isolation of CD34+ cells
- Ideal choice for low frequency samples
- Greatly reduces excess dead cells and debris carry-over
Viral transduction of hematopoietic cells is a fast, efficient method commonly used to study gene function, modulate gene expression, or deliver a potential vector for gene correction in gene therapies. Vectofusin-1 is a fully synthetic, non-toxic cationic amphipathic peptide with viral transduction enhancing capacity, enabling high transduction levels of HSCs with low amounts of retroviral vector.

StemMACS™ HSC Expansion Media XF enables robust expansion of hematopoietic stem cells from cord blood, bone marrow, or peripheral blood. Combined with the StemMACS HSC Expansion Cocktail, a set of cytokines, this xeno-free culture medium can be used to preserve high levels of primitive CD34+CD133+ hematopoietic cells.
StemMACS HSC Expansion Media XF
- Xeno-free
- Consistently high expansion rates
- High CD34+ cell content after expansion
Flow cytometric analyses provide you with quantitative information about the expression of intracellular as well as surface markers and let you assess the efficiency and quality of your viral transduction in just a few simple steps.
Multiparameter flow analysis of HSC cells
Cells expanded in StemMACS HSC Expansion Media XF maintain the characteristic surface phenotype of early hematopoietic progenitors and typically show a higher proportion of phenotypically primitive cells as compared to a competitor product.
