10 Questions About Stem Cell Research

10 Questions About Stem Cell Research

Research on perinatal and postnatal tissue stem cells continues to be very active worldwide. Perinatal stem cells are stem cells found in tissues associated with birth, like in the placenta, umbilical cord, and the amniotic fluid that surrounds babies when they are developing in the uterus. Postnatal stem cells are found in the body after

What is Cell Counting?

What is Cell Counting?

No matter what the specific discipline, the best scientific research strives to be quantitative. Throughout research and practice in science, engineering, and medicine, measuring the focus of investigation is an implicit essential principle. In cell biology, this crucial application is cell counting. How are cell counts calculated? In all cell counting methods, three general steps

What Are Stem Cell Products?

What Are Stem Cell Products?

Stem cell products have three main categories: isolated or manufactured stem cells for research and medical therapies; reagents for stem cell research and manufacturing; instruments for stem cell research and clinical production. Stem cell services, which might also be included for consideration, follow similar use and application themes. What type of stem cell is the

Asymmetrex’s 3-month campaign to increase awareness of the adult tissue stem cell counting problem has focused on how its AlphaSTEM technology solution could impact research and clinical practice.  Now, the final post in the series answers the question, “Does counting adult tissue stem cells have

Saving More Lives from Leukemia by Counting Blood Stem Cells

Saving More Lives from Leukemia by Counting Blood Stem Cells

“Leukemia” is a dreaded thing to be told after bringing your child to the doctor because she has become inexplicably tired with a cold that just won’t go away. In the U.S., every year, more than 5000 families hear this cancer name. Thanks to many years of research and clinical investigation, though the treatments are
