Description
Isolate highly purified human CD14+ cells from fresh or previously frozen human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) or washed leukapheresis samples by immunomagnetic positive selection, with the EasySep™ Human CD14 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 CD14 and magnetic particles. Labeled cells are separated using an EasySep™ magnet and by simply pouring or pipetting off the unwanted cells. The cells of interest remain in the tube. Following magnetic cell isolation in as little as 22 minutes, the desired CD14+ cells are ready for downstream applications such as flow cytometry, culture, or DNA/RNA extraction. The CD14 antigen is strongly expressed on monocytes and macrophages and weakly on granulocytes. It is also expressed on most tissue macrophages.
This product replaces the EasySep™ Human CD14 Positive Selection Kit (Catalog #18058) for even faster cell isolations.
For large-scale isolation of human CD14+ cells from leukapheresis samples, see the large-format (1x10^10 cells) kit (Catalog #100-0694).
