| Description | The Microglia Culture System comprises Microglia Differentiation Kit and Microglia Maturation Kit. Together, these kits are used to differentiate and mature microglia derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) using Hematopoietic Kit. Based on the protocol from the laboratory of Mathew Blurton-Jones (Abud et al. , 2017), the resulting cells are a highly pure population of microglia (> 80% CD45/CD11b-positive, > 50% TREM2-positive microglia; < 20% morphologically distinct monocytes or macrophages). Cells derived using these products are versatile tools for modeling neuroinflammation, studying human neurological development and disease, co-culture applications, and toxicity testing. |
