Stem cells are biological cells that can be converted into specific type of cells as per the body's requirement. Stem cells are of two types, i.e., adult stem cells and embryonic stem cells. Stem cells can be used to treat various diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorder, cardiovascular disorder and tissue regeneration. Stem cell characterization is the initial step for stem cell research. Stem cell characterization is a challenging and also an evolving process. Stem cell characterization kits are used for identification of stem cell biology markers. In stem cell characterization, stem cell biology marker profiles differ based on their species, maturity and site of origin. Stem cell characterization kit is required to understand the utility of the stem cells in downstream experiments and to confirm the pluripotency of the stem cell.
