This chapter describes the principles for derivation and maintenance of human embryonic stem cells. Detailed protocols are outlined and researchers who are generally skilled in mammalian cell culture should be able to repeat the processes successfully. Further, the protocols are intended for scientists who do not have access to advanced IVF equipment and therefore cannot perform, e.g. assisted hatching. In addition to derivation, we also discuss characterisation and banking of hES cells. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
