Stem Cell Related Patent Number US6077708
Title: | Method of determining progenitor cell content of a hematopoietic cell culture | Inventors: | Collins, Paul C.; Bridgewater, NJ, USA
Papoutsakis, E. Terry; Glenview, IL, USA
Miller, William M.; Evanston, IL, USA | Summary: | Described herein are methods of determining the progenitor cell content of a hematopoietic culture. The invention relates to a process of measuring various metabolic parameters of the culture, such as oxygen consumption, glucose consumption and lactate production which correlate to progenitor cell content. Therapeutic applications in gene therapy are included. | Abstract: | The invention provides a method of determining the content of progenitor cells in a hematopoietic cell culture. The method comprises measuring one or more metabolic parameters of the culture, such as oxygen consumption, glucose consumption and/or lactate production, and using the measured parameter(s) to determine the content of progenitor cells. | US Patent Website: | Click Here for Full Text of Patent | Title Number: | US6077708 | Application Number: | US1998000160457 | Date Filed: | 24/09/1998 | Date Published: | 20/06/2000 | Assignee: | None |
