Biorelevant culture of neural cells on Biolaminin substrates
Laminins are widely expressed in the nervous system and are essential for the development and function of neural cells. Biolaminins allow a long-term culture of specialized neuronal cells and better purity of transplantable neural progenitors. See our infographic and information on specific cell types below.

Biolaminin Key Advantages
Several laminin isoforms are expressed and functional in the nervous system. Biolaminins have successfully been used to mimic this authentic cell microenvironment for improved differentiation of the cell types in nervous system. Using Biolaminin 521, patient-derived iPSCs can be specified to neuroepithelial stem cell lines and efficiently expanded and differentiated into neurons and glial cells.
All our matrices are chemically defined and animal origin-free, which makes them ideal substrates for each level of the scientific process – from basic research to clinical applications.
Our products have consistent composition and quality. This enables minimized variability between experiments and uniform pluripotency gene expression profiles between different cell lines.
Numerous scientists have found our products and finally succeeded in their specific stem cell application. The power of full-length laminins incorporated into various cell systems is well documented in scientific articles and clinical trials.
What our customers say…
“We have discovered LN521 is far superior to all other alternative ECMs we have tried for hPSC culture, and have switched all our hiPSC and hESC lines to LN521 for maintenance. We’ve also found LN521 performs best for the adherence and regional specification of NPCs and neurons across several CNS differentiation protocols, including the dorsal cortex, medial ganglionic eminence, ventral midbrain, and ventral hindbrain.”
