Abstract
This disclosure provides an improved system for culturing human embryonic stem cells. The cells are cultured in suspension so as to maximize the production capacity of the culture environment. The new culture system of this invention allows for bulk proliferation of hES cells in a more cost-effective manner, which facilitates commercial production of important products for use in human therapy.
