LumiSTEM™ can be used as a proliferation / cytotoxicity - apoptosis assay for multiple cell system studies. The new LumiSTEM™-96 PREP assay has been designed to measure proliferation, substantiate th presence and self-renewal and expansion potential of stem cells from most of the systems listed below.

The ability to analyze the response of multiple primary cell populations in side-by-side studies simultaneously is part of the ComparaTOX™ Platform for Predictive In Vitro Cross-Platform Comparative Toxicity testing. Even though the cells may be cultured using different media, growth factors and for different time periods, the same standardized ATP-based bioluminescence readout is used. Thus, the response of 2 or more primary cell populations can be directly compared with each other. This is of paramount importance when new candidate drugs are screened or environmental toxins determined. For such screening procedures, HemoGenix® has developed the LumiSTEM™-384 Adherent and Non-Adherent Platform so that automated, high-throughput instrumentation can be used.
