Widespread use of human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) derived mature cell types is restricted by complex differentiation protocols and inefficient reprogramming methods. By applying a novel gene engineering approach, opti-oxTM, to cellular reprogramming these restrictions have been largely overcome. This proprietary technology enables precise reprogramming and homogeneous differentiation of entire stem cell cultures into any desired cell type.
