Analysis Results

Results for selected lines are presented; over time, the Stem Cell Unit plans to assess all available cell lines. Up to three lines will be used in large-scale gene expression studies that may employ microarray, SAGE, and/or MPSS technologies.

RT-PCR test results, growth curves, and subcloning test results are also available for selected lines.
