Studies on Coffee Consumption−New Biomarker Proposed

In order to record coffee consumption in nutrition and health studies, researchers usually rely on self-reporting by participants. However, this is not always reliable. It would therefore be desirable to conduct additional studies to objectively verify individual consumption using biomarkers. A research team led by the Leibniz Institute for Food Systems Biology at the Technical University of Munich has now validated the suitability of a specific roasted coffee compound and proposes it as a new, practical food biomarker.

Bioreactor Allows Automated Long-Term Culturing of Stem Cells

Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are considered as a promising tool in medicine, with the potential to unlock treatments for many health conditions such as neurodegenerative diseases and disorders. However, producing large amounts of hiPSCs remains a challenge. Researchers from the Fraunhofer Translational Center for Regenerative Therapies TLC-RT at the Fraunhofer Institute for Silicate Research ISC have now developed a bioreactor that can be used for automated long-term culturing of hiPSCs.

Bioreaktor ermöglicht automatisierte Langzeitkultivierung von Stammzellen

Humane induzierte pluripotente Stammzellen (hiPSCs) gelten als vielversprechendes Werkzeug in der Medizin: Künftig sollen sie die Therapie von vielen Leiden wie etwa neurodegenerativen Erkrankungen ermöglichen. Nach wie vor ist jedoch die Herstellung großer Mengen an hiPSCs eine Herausforderung. Forschende des Fraunhofer-Translationszentrums für Regenerative Therapien TLZ-RT am Fraunhofer-Institut für Silicatforschung ISC haben nun einen Bioreaktor entwickelt, mit dem eine automatisierte Langzeitkultivierung von hiPSCs gelingt.
