| Application: | Histopaque®-1083 has been used for the isolation of mononuclear cells and leukocytes from rat peripheral blood. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Anticoagulated blood is layered onto HISTOPAQUE1083. During centrifugation, erythrocytes are aggregated by polysucrose and rapidly sediment; whereas, lymphocytes and other mononuclear cells remain at the plasma-HISTOPAQUE 1083 interface. Erythrocytes pellet to the bottom of the centrifuge tube. |
| Features and Benefits: | Histopaque®-1083 offers numerous advantages, such as: • Optimal recovery of viable cells • Permits selective separation of blood cell types • Prevents cell distortion • Preserves cell viability • Minimal extraneous cell interference • Reproducible performance from batch to batch • Sterile-filtered and endotoxin-tested • Stable at 2-8°C for at least 2 years when protected from light |
| General description: | Histopaque®-1083 is a solution containing polysucrose and sodium diatrizoate, adjusted to a relative density of 1.083 g/mL. It facilitates the recovery of viable mononuclear cells from small volumes of blood of rats, mice, and other small mammals. |
