Description
Easily and efficiently isolate highly purified human natural killer (NK) cells from fresh or previously frozen human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) or lysed leukapheresis samples by immunomagnetic negative selection, with the EasySep™ Human NK Cell Enrichment Kit. 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™ negative selection procedure, unwanted cells are labeled with antibody complexes and magnetic particles. The following unwanted cells are targeted for removal: granulocytes, T cells, B cells, monocytes, dendritic cells, and erythroid cells. The magnetically labeled cells are then separated from the untouched desired human NK cells by using an EasySep™ magnet and simply pouring or pipetting the desired cells into a new tube. Following magnetic cell isolation, the desired NK cells are ready for downstream applications such as flow cytometry, culture, or DNA/RNA extraction.
For even faster cell isolations, we recommend the EasySep™ Human NK Cell Isolation Kit (Catalog #17955) which isolates cells in just 8 minutes.
