STEMCELL Technologies Inc

General information

STEMCELL Technologies is a Canadian biotechnology company that develops specialty cell culture media, cell separation products and ancillary reagents for life science research. Driven by science and a passion for quality, STEMCELL delivers over 2500 products to more than 80 countries worldwide.

STEMCELL helps make sure your research works. We do it in many ways: in the development of novel products, in providing consistent, unfailing quality, and by standing with you, in person or by telephone, to provide one-on-one assistance to help you succeed. We do this because we love science as much as you do.

A Lab and a Company

STEMCELL grew out of the Media Preparation Service of the Terry Fox Laboratory for Hematology/Oncology Research at the British Columbia Cancer Agency. The Media Preparation Service was originally created in 1981 to provide high quality, cost effective tissue culture media for cancer researchers. In 1993, to allow it to grow, the Media Preparation Service was spun off as a private company, STEMCELL Technologies Inc.

Since this time, STEMCELL has been dedicated to providing standardized reagents and tools for all areas of stem cell research, and has extended this expertise to many other sectors of life science. The quality control processes and raw material selection are critical to the production and optimal performance of STEMCELL’s entire portfolio of products, ensuring that batch-to-batch variability is minimized. You can be assured that the products you use in your experiments perform the same every time.

Committed to Science and Scientists

In addition to rigorously pre-screened reagents and thorough quality control processes, STEMCELL knows that a number of other factors contribute to achieving consistent results, such as training and access to timely and effective technical support. Our knowledgeable technical support team and staff scientists not only provide educational programs and training courses at our facility and worldwide, but are also available to speak directly with you to discuss any questions you may have.

STEMCELL is also committed to working with you to develop new products that will help you perform your experiments better and faster. If there is a product or service that we do not currently offer, we would be happy to work with you to customize media or cell isolation products to meet your specific needs. With many years of cell separation expertise, an extensive range of antibodies and a variety of cell isolation methods, STEMCELL Technologies will work with you to create tailor-made products that enable the isolation of desired cell types. We also routinely provide customers with custom media preparations, tailored to meet their specific needs.

STEMCELL's Contract Assay Services team can work with you to develop and perform flexible custom-designed experiments that meet your unique needs and goals.
We are committed to being your partner in stem cell and life science research.
