  • The kit delivers exceptional genome coverage from single cells, populations of cells and low quantities of genomic DNA, including regions with high GC-content. (qiagen.com)
  • If we sample the cells every 15 minutes, it does not change cell either morphology or activity," he said. (genomeweb.com)
  • If [intervals are] less than 15 minutes then cells start changing morphology. (genomeweb.com)
  • However, usefulness of microdissection is often limited by the difficulties in identifying desired cell types by morphology alone. (genengnews.com)
  • Retention of labeled DNA strands may be attributed to the ability of stem cells to retain the parental DNA strand during asymmetric cell division ( Cairns, 1975 ) or to quiescence of the stem cell population such that the DNA label is not diluted by frequent cell divisions ( Klein and Simons, 2011 ).

  • Pancreatic endocrine islet β-cells create and release the two crucial hormones that regulate blood glucose levels: insulin, which acts to lower blood sugar, and glucagon, which raises blood sugar. (frontiersin.org)
  • Studies of mESC and hepatic cell adhesion preferences revealed that mESCs required fibronectin for attachment, while hepatic cells (HepG2) preferred collagen (I) substrate and did not adhere to fibronectin. (ca.gov)
