Name StemRelease™ Dissociation Reagent
Description

StemRelease™ Dissociation Reagent is a gentle, enzyme-free cell dissociation reagent designed for routine passaging and harvesting of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), including human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and embryonic stem cells (ESCs).


It enables efficient detachment of hPSC colonies while maintaining cells as multicellular aggregates, helping preserve cell viability, colony-forming ability, and pluripotency.


StemRelease™ Dissociation Reagent is suitable for routine hPSC passaging, expansion, cryopreservation preparation, and downstream differentiation applications.

 

Key Features

  • Gentle, enzyme-free dissociation of hPSC colonies
  • Maintains cells as multicellular aggregates rather than single cells
  • Suitable for routine passaging, expansion, and cryopreservation workflows
  • Ready-to-use formulation with no dilution required
  • Compatible with commonly used hPSC culture matrices and maintenance media

StemRelease™ Dissociation Reagent is compatible with commonly used feeder-free hPSC culture systems, including:

  • Vitronectin-coated culture systems
  • Matrix-based coating systems including Matrigel and 3DCelMatrix™
  • Commonly used hPSC maintenance media
Unit 100 ml
Usage

Recommended Companion Products

  • 3DCelMatrix™ (TM076) - Matrix coating system
  • ROCK Inhibitor Solution (1000X) (TM172) - optional support following passaging, thawing, or other stressful handling conditions, as required by the specific culture protocol
  • CryoGuard™ Freezing Media (TM078) - cryopreservation medium

 

Recommended Workflow

  1. Wash cells once with 1X DPBS, No Ca²⁺, No Mg²⁺ (CH110).
  2. Add sufficient StemRelease™ Dissociation Reagent to cover the cell surface, approximately 2 ml/well for a 6-well plate or 4 ml for a 10 cm dish.
  3. Incubate at room temperature for approximately 4 minutes, or until colonies begin to shrink and show visible separation at the colony edges.
  4. Carefully aspirate StemRelease™ without disturbing the colonies.
  5. Leave the cells at room temperature for an additional 1–3 minutes to allow the colonies to loosen further.
  6. Add hPSC maintenance medium and gently pipette to detach and resuspend the colonies as small multicellular aggregates. Avoid excessive pipetting or single-cell dissociation.
  7. Transfer the cell aggregates to freshly coated culture vessels for passaging or proceed with cryopreservation as required.
