Fraunhofer Project Center for Stem Cell Process Engineering
Aligned MSCs on printed alginate structures.
Cardiomyocytes on an alginate scaffold.
The Project Center for Stem Cell Process Engineering has both a pool of established stem cell cultivation and differentiation protocols as well as a broad platform of tests and analytical methods. The project center develops and offers customer-specific applications with tailor-made materials and cells, including:
- Cytotoxicity assays
- Compatibility tests for materials
- FACS and qPCR analysis for stem cell cultivation and cells differentiated from hiPSC
- Establishment of gold standards for industry
- Creation of standardized processes for materials and stem cell processes (partly in bioreactors)
