Hi,  
Can you suggest a protocol for lactate purification after wnt-modulated differentiation?  
I have been unable to find a detailed protocol.  
thanks,  
Lynn

Hi @hartw006 ,

Thanks for your question - we haven’t used lactate selection to purify our hiPSC-derived cardios here at AICS, but here is a paper which describes a method one of my colleagues has used in her previous lab:

[https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2211124720309062?via%3Dihub](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2211124720309062?via%3Dihub)

Particularly, the description under the section " Human iPSC culture and differentiation" in the Methods section has a detailed description of the lactate selection method used.

Thanks & best,  
Becky Zaunbrecher
