Application Notes
Automated, Non-Invasive Culture, and Evaluation System for iPS Cells under Neural Differentiation Process
Januar 2011
This application note details an integrated workflow for the culture, observation, evaluation, and differentiation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells into neurons, introducing image processing methods for detecting neural rosettes and neurite outgrowth – two important morphological checkpoints in neural differentiation. Automated imaging for this assay is performed using a Nikon BioStation CT.
