At PK4 Laboratories, we pride ourselves on being at the forefront of PBMC processing and isolation. Our dedication to quality and expertise has allowed us to become a recognized PBMC laboratory, trusted by clinical researchers, sponsors, and many others worldwide. While our manual PBMC isolation method has been and continues to be highly effective in producing pure and viable cells, we are excited to announce that we now offer another type of separation - magnetic cell separation and isolation.

PBMC Isolation

What is Magnetic Cell Separation and Isolation?

Magnetic cell separation and isolation is a technique used for isolating specific cell populations from a heterogeneous mixture. This method utilizes magnetic nanoparticles coated with antibodies that specifically bind to target cells, allowing them to be separated from the rest of the sample. The separation process is carried out in a magnetic field, which pulls the targeted cells towards a magnet while the unwanted cells are left behind.

PBMC Isolation

How Does it Complement Our Manual PBMC Isolation Method?

At PK4 Laboratories, we understand that every study has unique requirements and may require different methods of cell isolation. While our manual PBMC isolation method has been successful in producing high-quality cells, magnetic cell separation and isolation provides an additional option without replacing the current service. This technique allows for the isolation of specific cell populations without the need for harsh centrifugation steps, resulting in higher yields and better purity.

The Benefits of Magnetic Cell Separation and Isolation

Besides its efficiency and gentleness, magnetic cell separation and isolation also offers other advantages that make it a preferred method for cell isolation in clinical research. These include:

• Specificity: The use of antibodies allows for the isolation of targeted cells with high specificity, ensuring that only the desired cells are separated.
• No stress on cells: The gentle separation process minimizes cell stress and damage, resulting in better viability and functionality.
• Flexibility: Magnetic cell separation can be used for a wide range of cell types, including rare or difficult-to-isolate cells.
