Selection criteria for clones Fibroblasts were infected with fresh virus preparations one day after seeding them in a density of 100,000 cells/well of a 6-well plate with 5 μg/mL protamine sulphate (Sigma). Four days after infection the cells were passaged with trypsine/EDTA (Invitrogen) on irradiated MEFs. One day after the passage the medium was changed from fibroblast medium to hES medium. Based on their morphology iPS cell colonies (morphology of ESC-like clones) were picked manually 16-21 days later.
