(A) Schematic illustration of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) cultured at planar interfaces between aqueous phases and a thermotropic LC (TL205). (B and C) Polarized light images of TL205 following exposure to an Alexa Fluor-labeled Matrigel solution and subsequent seeding and culture of hESCs for 3 days (B) and 7 days (C). (D and E) Fluorescence images of TL205 following exposure to the Alexa Fluor-labeled Matrigel solution prior to seeding of hESCs (D) and after seeding and culture of hESCs for 3 days (E).
