Multiparameter comparisons of embryoid body differentiation toward human stem cell applications

Applications of differentiated progeny generated from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) broadly span cell replacement therapies and screening studies (toxicology, disease-drug modeling). These applications require differentiation into lineage-specific cell types from hESCs that are largely dependent on several reported embryoid body (EB) formation methods. However, methodologies for in vitro EB differentiation have not been quantitatively …
