Applications
Application
This Alkaline Phosphatase Detection Kit is a specific & sensitive tool for the phenotypic assessment of Embryonic Stem (ES) cell differentiation by the determination of AP activity.
Key Applications
Stem Cell Culture
Application Notes
Embryonic stem (ES) cells are totipotent cells derived from the inner cell mass (ICM) of preimplantation mammalian embryos and are capable of unlimited, undifferentiated proliferation in vitro [1,2,3]. Undifferentiated murine ES cells can be maintained in vitro for extended periods in media containing the cytokine, leukemia-inhibitory factor (LIF) or Millipores proprietary ES cell culture reagent, ESGRO [4,5]. The undifferentiated state of ES cells can be characterized by high level of expression of Alkaline Phosphatase (AP) [6], the expression of surface markers including SSEA and TRA antigens and the transcription factor Oct-4.
Millipores Alkaline Phosphatase Detection Kit (Catalog number SCR004) is a specific and sensitive tool for the phenotypic assessment of ES cell differentiation by the determination of AP activity.
Available separately from Millipore are the monoclonal antibodies TRA-2-49 (Catalog Number MAB4349) and TRA-2-54 (Catalog Number MAB4354), which permit the detection of Liver / Bone / Kidney isozyme of AP as expressed by ES cells. When used in flow cytometry, these reagents permit a quantitative assessment of AP expression by ES cells [7].
