Ovine ESC

We offer the most advance cell line solution for cultivated meat

Ovine ESC morphology in 2D culture

Ovine embryo-derived stem cells (ESCs)

Our ovine embryo-derived stem cells (ESCs) are derived and cultured feeder-free in serum-free media. Characterisation includes qPCR, flow cytometry, karyotyping and sterility tests. Protocols for scale-up and differentiation are under development.
