Cancer stem cell selection
Advance cancer stem cell culture Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a specific and small subpopulation of tumor cells. Despite their low number, they drive tumor initiation, influence tumor progression, and cause metastasis and relapse. Increased cancer stem cell populations have been shown to reflect the aggressiveness and therapy-resistant phenotype of the tumor….

Holotomography: 3D Non-Invasive Live-Cell Imaging of Stem Cells
Real-time tracking of stem cells during cell culture experiments can provide fundamental new insights into their biology. Yet stem cells are very sensitive to experiment-induced stress, and the use of labeling agents or intense light can damage them. With holotomography technology, long-term 3D live-cell imaging of stem cells under physiological conditions is possible – without the use of exogenous dyes and with no phototoxicity….
