Researchers from the Critical Analytics for Manufacturing Personalized Medicine (CAMP), an interdisciplinary research group (IRG) of Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART), in collaboration with Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and National University of Singapore (NUS), have developed a first-of-its-kind rapid, non-destructive method to monitor iron flux—the movement and rate at which cells take in, store, use and release iron—in mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), which can provide insights within a minute on the cell’s ability to grow cartilage tissue for cartilage repair.
