Spontaneous differentiation of iPSCs after expansion in QES. (a) Floating embryoid bodies (EB) 7 days after aggregation. (b) Colony morphology after attachment. (c) Expression of markers of three embryonic germ layers by RT-PCR when cultivated on Matrigel (CTRL1) or after QES expansion on LN521 and VN. Scale bars represent 100 μm.
