Description
Easily isolate highly purified human epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) positive cells from fresh or previously frozen cultured human mammary epithelial cells or other dissociated tissue samples, using immunomagnetic positive selection, with the EasySep™ Human EpCAM Positive Selection Kit II. Widely used in published research for more than 20 years, EasySep™ combines the specificity of monoclonal antibodies with the simplicity of a column-free magnetic system.
In this EasySep™ positive selection procedure, desired cells are labeled with antibody complexes recognizing EpCAM and magnetic particles. Labeled cells are separated using an EasySep™ magnet and by simply pouring off the unwanted cells. The cells of interest remain in the tube. Following magnetic cell isolation, the desired EpCAM+ cells are ready for downstream applications such as flow cytometry, culture, or DNA/RNA extraction. The EpCAM+ fraction contains luminal cells, luminal-restricted, and bipotential progenitor cells.
