Abstract: Determining, in a sample, the presence and/or amount of pluripotent stem cells. A sample suspected of containing one or more pluripotent stem cells is provided. The sample with a fluorescent compound is contacted under conditions that allow binding of the fluorescent compound to the pluripotent stem cells, where the fluorescent compound is a fluorescent compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The presence and/or amount of the pluripotent stem cells is determined by measuring the fluorescence of the cells following the contacting.

Abstract: The present invention provides fluorescent compounds of formula (I) as disclosed herein or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Further provided are uses of said fluorescent compounds in methods of determining, in a sample, the presence and/or amount of pluripotent stem cells or cells undergoing reprogramming to become induced pluripotent stem cells.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to methods for the formation and production of renewable muscle and/or fat primary cell lines, immortalized cell lines, and stem cell lines from shrimp, prawn, crab, crayfish, and/or lobster species and the cell lines themselves as well as human and animal consumable meat products produced therefrom.
