A special associate professor at Kyoto University in Japan, Kazuyuki Kazuyuki (stem cell engineering), announced on the 8th that a special cloth was developed using nanofibers for the mass culture of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells). It is reported that it is jointly developed with the underwear giant county is the company, or helps to reduce costs.
According to Kamei, the cloth is made of gelatin and synthetic fibers and has a thickness of less than 1 mm. After attaching the cells to the surface of the cloth, a plurality of such cloths were folded and placed in a bag containing the culture solution for cultivation.
When cultured human iPS cells are used for clinical tissues such as heart and liver, one dish requires one or more culture dishes using a culture dish method. If you use the newly developed cloth, you only need a small implementation space. This cloth can also be used for embryonic stem cells (ES cells).
In addition, it has been reported that with this cloth, the cells can be increased to about forty-five times a week, and high-quality cells equivalent to those of the culture dish can be obtained. In the future, it will be improved for practical applications.
