Stem Cell Research Products: Opportunities, Tools & Technologies

ResearchMoz.us include new market research report"Stem Cell Research Products: Opportunities, Tools & Technologies " to its huge collection of research reports.

Stem cells are primitive cells found in all multi-cellular organisms that are characterized by self-renewal and the capacity to differentiate into any mature cell type. 


Stem cells are still a relatively new discovery, as the first mouse embryonic stem cells were derived from embryos in 1981, but it was not until 1995 that the first successful culturing of embryonic stem cells from non-human primates occurred and not until November 1998 that a technique was developed to isolate and grow embryonic stem cells from human blastocysts. In 2006, induced pluripotent stem cells were produced for the first time from mouse cells and in 2007 they were produced from human cells. Furthermore, it was not until 2008 that the first full transplant of a human organ grown from adult stem cells was performed when a section of trachea was successfully transplanted into an adult woman in Spain. 

As of 2014, several broad categories of stem cells exist, including:

Embryonic stem cells, derived from blastocysts
Fetal stem cells, obtained from fetuses
Post-natal stem cells, derived from newborn tissues
Adult stem cells, found in adult tissues – including Hematopoietic stem cells, Mesenchymal stem cells, and Neural stem cells
Cord blood stem cells, isolated from umbilical tissue
Dental stem cells, derived from deciduous teeth
Induced pluripotent stem cells, reprogrammed from adult cells
Cancer stem cells, which give rise to clonal populations of cells that form tumors or disperse in the body
Animal stem cells, derived from non-human sources
The past 10 years have also witnessed the production of novel stem cell types, including piPSCs, R-NSCs, and VSELs. Together, this evidence suggests that additional types of stem cells will likely be discovered, each representing new opportunities for research product development. Clearly, laboratory research into stem cell derivation, manipulation, and application is rapidly expanding.

To facilitate research resulting from these advances, a large and diverse stem cells products market has emerged. Large companies selling stem cell research products include Thermo Fisher Scientific (now merged with Life Technologies), BD Biosciences, EMD Millipore, Sigma Aldrich, and STEMCELL Technologies, as well as over one hundred other suppliers. 


Currently, the following product categories compose the majority of global stem cell product sales:

Primary antibodies to stem cell antigens
Bead-based stem cell separation systems
Fluorescent-based labeling and detection
Stem cell protein purification and analysis tools
Tools for DNA and RNA-based characterization of stem cells
Isolation/characterization services
Stem cell culture media and reagents
Stem cell specific growth factors and cytokines
Tools for stem cell gene regulation
Stem cell services and mechanisms for in vivo and in vitro stem cell tracking
Expansion/differentiation services for stem cell media and RNAi
