Title:
ISOLATION METHOD FOR INNER CELL MASSES AND METHOD FOR PREPARING EMBRYONIC STEM CELL LINES USING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/114193
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an isolation method for inner cell masses and a method for preparing embryonic stem cell lines using the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to an isolation method for inner cell masses by placing a blastocyst, from which a zona pellucida has been removed, on feeder cells and covering the blastocyst with a micro cover glass; and pressurizing the blastocyst by the weight of the micro cover glass for a predetermined amount of time to the isolated inner cell masses. Thus, it is possible to harvest inner cell masses with a significantly higher yield than before. Accordingly, the isolation method can establish and proliferate embryonic stem cell lines effectively.
