Top 10 best practices for growing stem cells

  • Ensure a clean, sterile environment to avoid contamination
  • Use the right type of stem cell line (iPSCs) appropriate for your experiments
  • Keep the cells in an incubator at optimal temperature and humidity conditions
  • Monitor cell growth regularly
  • Perform regular cell culture maintenance and passaging
  • Use single-use, disposable cultureware to prevent cross-contamination
  • Use sterile technique when transferring cells to new plates
  • Ensure optimal pH, osmolarity, and cell density
  • Provide the right balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide for cell growth
  • Use the proper cell culture media and supplements for efficient growth
