Characterization of hPDLCs. (a) ALP activity of the hPDLCs was lower compared to hBMSCs (positive control) on day 8, while fibroblasts were negative. (b) Mineral deposition was detected by a Von Kossa staining (black color) after 30 days of osteogenic induction. Error bars represent standard deviation.
