IGNITE TECHNOLOGY BIOMEDICAL SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING IGNITE Technology Transfer Office Serum-Free Mesenchymal Stem Cell Culture Medium World’s ﬁrst serum-free medium to allow the isolation and maintenance of human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs). Objective: Available for licensing Highlights: • Only serum-free medium to allow isolation of MSCs from bone marrow. • Superior performance to current cell culture media on the market. • Serum-free, chemically-deﬁned medium avoiding potential contamination and disease transmission through serum usage. • Patent pending. Animal serum is currently used to grow MSCs. This is problematic as this can lead to transmission of animal disease contaminating the cells; similarly there is a growing shortage worldwide of suitable serum for this purpose. This technology provides the only growth medium to allow isolation and growth of MSCs without the need for serum, providing a revolutionary safe and effective method for their production in this fast growing multi-million Euro market.
