Abstract: In various embodiments, a cell culture medium, or a nucleoside cocktail transmission (NCT) medium for the culture of stem cells with improved genetic stability, cellular function and regeneration ability is provided. Illustrative culture media comprise a basal culture medium for stem cells, where the culture medium is supplemented with one or more nucleoside triphosphates (e.g., dNTPs and/or NPs) or one or more precursors thereof. Illustrative NCT media comprise a delivery vehicle (e g. skin creams or other vehicle) containing one or more nucleoside triphosphates (e.g., dNTPs and/or NPs) or one or more precursors thereof. The NCT medium provides, inter alia, direct delivery of nucleoside cocktails into human tissues (such as skin) for regenerative, cosmetic and/or therapeutic purposes.

Abstract: A microfluidic chip for at least one of cell culturing and cell assay has a cell culture chamber defined by the microfluidic chip, a first microchannel defined by the microfluidic chip and constructed to provide a fluid path to said cell culture chamber, the microchannel having a pneumatic valve formed therein to permit selective opening and closing of a fluid path to said cell culture chamber, and a second microchannel defined by the microfluidic chip and constructed to provide a fluid path from the cell culture chamber.
