FGF2 DISCs are biocompatible hydrogels that release defined levels of native FGF2 stably into culture medium over the course of one week. Native FGF2 has a short half life (4 hours) and rapidly decays in cell culture media. Adding soluble FGF2 through daily, conventional commercial media feeds creates fluctuations in growth factor levels that affect signaling pathways and creates a stressful cellular environment.
StemBeads Activin A is a patented growth factor supplement that offers a novel way to culture Activin A dependent cultures more efficiently, with greater control and fewer medium changes. Activin-A can be use to maintain pluripotent stem cells as well differentiate them to different lineages such as endoderm. StemBeads Activin A are microbeads composed of FDA approved, biodegradable PLGA polymer that is loaded with recombinant human Activin A. Under the microscope, StemBeads will appear as small dark spheres. Over time, they break down while releasing the encapsulated protein at a controlled rate. Controlled delivery and stable levels of Activin A improve cell cultures while saving researchers valuable time and resources.

StemBeads® BDNF is a patented growth factor supplement that offers a novel way to culture cells with native Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor more efficiently, with greater control and fewer medium changes. BDNF is key for supporting neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and neuronal differentiation. StemBeads® BDNF are microbeads composed of an FDA approved, biodegradable PLGA polymer that is loaded with native, non-mutant recombinant human BDNF and release the encapsulated protein at a constant rate. Under the microscope, StemBeads® will appear as small dark spheres that do not harm the cells, and with time, will break down while releasing the encapsulated protein. Controlled delivery and stable levels overcome the 2 hour half-life (Figure below) of BDNF and improve cell cultures while saving researchers valuable time and resources.
StemBeads® EGF is a patented growth factor supplement that offers a novel way to culture cells with native Endothelial Growth Factor more efficiently, with greater control and fewer medium changes. EGF is key for supporting differentiations. StemBeads® EGF are microbeads composed of an FDA approved, biodegradable PLGA polymer that is loaded with native recombinant human EGF and release the encapsulated protein at a constant rate. Controlled delivery and stable levels overcome the short half-life (Figure below) of EGF and improve cell cultures while saving researchers valuable time and resources.
StemBeads® GDNF is a patented growth factor supplement that offers a novel way to culture cells with native Glial Derived Neurotrophic Factor more efficiently, with greater control and fewer medium changes. GDNF is key for supporting neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and neuronal differentiation. StemBeads® GDNF are microbeads composed of an FDA approved, biodegradable PLGA polymer that is loaded with native, non-mutant recombinant human GDNF and release the encapsulated protein at a constant rate. Controlled delivery and stable levels overcome the 34 minute half-life (Figure below) of GDNF and improve cell cultures while saving researchers valuable time and resources.
