Hi everyone,

I've been differentiating cardiomyocytes from iPSCs using stem cell technologies' ventricular cardiomyocyte differentiation kit. However, I've recently encountered a significant reduction in differentiation efficiency. I initiate differentiation 2-3 days after seeding, once the cells reach 80-90% confluency. I always use fresh media and supplements. I also tried differentiating cardiomyocytes from two different cell lines, but the outcome was similar. I noticed an increase in the non-CM population, cells appear degenerated around D6-D8 of differentiation and the cells don't start beating as expected. Can anyone give me advice on the subject? Any suggestions you can share would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
