Scientist Testimonials

Dr. Marcus Muench, Associate Investigator, Blood Systems Research Institute, Associate Adjunct Professor, University of California San Francisco.

“…We tested on human hematopoietic progenitors and stem cells for overall growth and generation of dendritic cells, NK cells, B cells and expansion of CD34+ cells. Bottom line is that your Isokine rhFL product performed very favorably. Marcus”

Dr. Ó. Sigurjónsson, Head of Research and Innovation, Blood Bank, University Hospital

“The quality of the cytokines were analyzed using a MTT bioassay using the murine BaF 3 cell line expressing the FGF receptors. These cell lines have been extensively used to study the biology of the FGF receptors and as a tool in cytokine bioassays for the bFGF … Our experience with the ISOkine bFGF was as good if not better than with other commercially available bFGF that we have used before.”

Ivan Rich, PhD., Founder and CEO of HemoGenix^®

“It has been a pleasure working with ORF. Their response and their products have been exceptional. Incorporating these growth factors and cytokines in our HALO Platform products is extremely important for our quality control and potency assays, because we can now use biorisk- and contaminant-free products that provide far greater clinical relevance for the results that are obtained with our kits and services”.
