Mature, functional human
iPSC-derived cells within days,
powered by opti-ox

The future of human health will be defined by technologies that accelerate the world's access to more effective medicines.

Human cells are a cornerstone of fundamental disease research, drug discovery, and clinical translation. Yet, despite decades of research into iPSCs, emerging cures for some of the world’s most pervasive diseases have been bottlenecked by a lack of access to standardised, easy to use and readily accessible human cells.

We built ioCells to solve this challenge.

Developed on our platform, and powered by opti-ox technology, ioCells are human cells deterministically programmed from iPSCs consistently, at scale. With ioCells, scientists no longer need to battle with variance, unreliability, physiological irrelevance and long experimental timelines. Instead, scientists can finally focus on the next great advances in human health.

ioCells are for research use only.

Benchtop benefits

Consistent

Our platform ensures consistency between every batch of cells, overcoming the challenge of data reproducibility.

Cost-effective

ioCells generate quality data at industry leading seeding densities. You can do more with every vial as every well saves you money.

Defined

Every ioCell has its identity characterised by ICC, RT-qPCR and RNA-Seq at minimum.

Easy-to-use

ioCells are delivered cryopreserved and require a simple protocol using an open-source medium to get started.

Quick

Deterministically programmed cells mature rapidly, meaning cells are ready for experimentation and data gathering within days post-revival.

Scalable

With opti-ox technology we can make billions of consistently programmed cells, surpassing the demands of industrial workflows.

What Scientists Say About ioCells

Dr Marijn Vlaming

Head of Biology - Beerse & Leiden | Charles River

"Using more relevant cell models such as ioCells from bit.bio helps us to test safety and toxicity in vitro, in parallel with efficacy, and as such we will be able to identify the safe or unsafe drug candidates very early in the drug discovery process"

Dr Mariangela Iovino

Senior Group Leader | Biology Discovery | Charles River

“These cells were really easy-to-use and ready to be plated in the assay format"

Rodney A. Bowling Jr, PhD

Co-Founder & Chief Scientific Officer | Everlum Bio

"I found the customer service at bit.bio to be a premium, I found it to be wonderful”

Our deterministic cell programming technology

 

Every ioCell is powered by opti-ox.

Using opti-ox, populations of stem cells are precisely and consistently programmed into a chosen cell identity. Each vial of ioCells contains a defined and highly characterised population of iPSC-derived human cells that are ready for quality data production in a matter of days. Their high lot-to-lot consistency provides a reliable cell model that enables scientists to conduct repeatable and scalable experiments in drug discovery and disease research.
