the development of stem cell differentiation protocols and optimised cell culture media.
CombiCult effectively substitutes a manual ‘trail-and-improvement’ empirical approach
requiring up to two years and a budget of $2m with a streamlined process lasting three to six
months at a cost an order of magnitude lower. This study will underpin Plasticell’s
development of a robust strategy for developing business in the international academic market with CombiCult.</ns2:abstractText></ns2:project>
