The Pierce™ Primary Cardiomyocyte Isolation Kit is designed to obtain high viability and purity of primary cardiomyocytes using validated reagents and an optimised procedure for enzymatic digestion and culturing.
- Procedure and reagents optimized for viability, yield, purity, and ease-of-use
- Provides a 1,5 to 4 fold increase in yield compared to do-it-yourself methods and other commercial kits
- Used in cardiomyocyte cell differentiation, immunohistochemistry, functional and biochemical assays
- Biologically relevant system for preclinical drug discovery and predictive disease modeling
Pierce™ Primary Cardiomyocyte Isolation Kit provides fully optimised reagents and a protocol that prevents overdigestion for the isolation and culture of cardiomyocytes. The complete process from handling primary tissues to seeding cells in culture vessels can be completed within 2 hours.The isolated primary cardiomyocytes express cardiomyocyte protein markers and exhibit contractile function, thereby providing a model system for studies of contraction, ischaemia, hypoxia and the toxicity of various compounds.
Delivery information: Kit includes Cardiomyocyte Isolation Enzyme 1, Cardiomyocyte Isolation Enzyme 2, Hanks' Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS), D-MEM for primary cell isolation, and Cardiomyocyte Growth Supplement.
