ASC’s human embryonic stem/induced pluripotent stem (hES/iPS) cell Characterization Kit is designed for users who need to examine the pluripotent status of hES/iPS cell by analyzing undifferentiated protein marker expressions. Incorporated a standard cell culture and immunofluorescence staining protocol with our optimized, ready-to-use reagents, the kit provides a fast, convenient, sensitive immunodetection for status ofhES/iPS cell. Five widely adopted antibody markers, anti-Oct4, anti-Sox2, anti-SSEA-3, anti-TRA-1-60 and anti-TRA-1-81, are offered here with optimized concentration. Oct4 and Sox2 are transcription factors highly expressed in undifferentiated ESC and embryonic germ cells (EGC)[1-3]. SSEA-3 is a globoseries carbohydrate antigen present on the surface of human ESC, but not mouse ESC[4,5]. TRA-1-60 and TRA-1-81 antigens are expressed on the surface of human teratocarcinoma stem cells (EC), hEGC and hESC[6], but no expression in murine EC, EG or ES cells. In addition, ASC’s hES/iPS cell Characterization Kit also provides a rapidalkaline phosphatase(AP)activity test, which is widely used to examine the differentiated/undifferentiated status of ES/iPS cells. AP is a stem cell membrane marker. Elevated expression of AP is associated with pluripotent status[7].
