High quality and novel growth factors for stem cell and organoid culture, regenerative medicine and cellular agriculture
About us
Qkine manufactures high-quality and novel growth factors, supporting scientists in developing and scaling stem cell, organoid, cellular agriculture and regenerative medicine applications. We are also developing new growth factor technologies to enable emerging fields such as cultured meat and 3D cell culture. All Qkine high purity animal-free growth factor proteins are manufactured at our facility in Cambridge, UK . Extensive quality testing is conducted on every lot to guarantee reproducibility. Based on proprietary technology developed in the laboratory of Dr Marko Hyvönen, senior group leader at the University of Cambridge, Qkine manufactures highly pure bioactive recombinant proteins. Along with setting a new benchmark for protein purity, Qkine uses protein engineering techniques to tackle fundamental biological and scalability challenges that are holding back the stem cell and regenerative medicine sector; for example, recent projects have included development of optimised R-spondins to replace conditioned media for organoid culture. To give stem cell scientists peace of mind, Qkine manufactures its proteins in a dedicated animal-derived component-free (ADCF) laboratory under an ISO 9001:2015. We define rigorous quality criteria, with detailed data. Bulk orders and stock reservations are available. For more information please visit www.qkine.com, or contact the Qkine Team at info@qkine.com

Activin A is frequently used to maintain pluripotency in induced pluripotent and embryonic stem cell cultures. High purity and bioactivity activin A (Qk001) is our flagship product and remains one of our most popular. All Qkine products are designed from conception to be the best possible version of the protein and we test every lot manufactured to ensure purity and bioactivity. We are always happy to support stem cell scientists so get in touch > https://zurl.co/l5KD Read more on Qkine human activin A and buy online > https://zurl.co/L15a See our comparative bioactivity technote > https://zurl.co/O1JR #stemcells #research #growthfactors

We love to support cellular agriculture and it's always great to see some lovely data, thank you John Y.! Qkine manufacture the 154 aa full length bovine/porcine FGF2-G3 (Qk081) and a shorter more bioactive 145 aa FGF2-G3 (Qk081). Both with thermostability under cell culture conditions >7 days. Check out our species matched high quality food grade growth factors for cellular agriculture > https://lnkd.in/e9g3f7RT
Cool results from us at Deco Labs with thermostable bovine FGF2-G3 from Qkine, which has improved the performance of our serum-free media while reducing media change frequency. Thank you Catherine Elton and team! When combined with rapeseed protein isolate (RPI) as an albumin replacement (#AndrewAndrew Stout), our cells show comparable growth rates to FBS-containing media, at least based our confluency based cell growth assay! 📈 #CellAg #BioprocessDevelopment #CultivatedMeat #Biotech #CellCulture #TissueEngineering
