Sendai Reprogramming

Target of this service is the generation of iPSCs from PBMCs isolated from whole blood using Sendai virus.

Please email the completed submission form and provide a health certificate outlining that the health status of the donor is pathogen free (HIV-, HBV-, HCV-) 

Sample submission: fresh whole blood/ freshly isolated PBMCs from whole blood.

Cryopreserved PBMCs (Note: the cryopreserved PBMCs will be processed for reprogramming unless the culture exhibits high percentage of cell death)

The service requires 4-6 months for completion.

Cell are transduced with Sendai virus and the reprogramming will be performed under feeder-free conditions.

Single-cell clones exhibiting the best morphologies and growth rates are further expanded for testing Sendai virus absence (TaqMan-based RT – PCR assay) and for cryopreservation. 

Two Sendai negative clones are shipped to clients as frozen vials (5 vials per clone).

Sendai negative clones will be declared as BSL-1 (S1). The iPSCs are genetically modified organisms by definition despite the lack of foreign DNA, therefore customers require BSL-1/S1 laboratory for storing and handling the cells according to GenTSV.
