Large Cell Columns are designed for positive selection of large human or animal cells, for example megakaryocytes. In general, cell suspensions should not contain clumps, aggregates or particles >50 μm. The flow rate of the columns is controlled with a flow resistor that is supplied with the columns.
Large Cell Columns can be used with the following separators:
- MiniMACS™ Separator
- OctoMACS™ Separator
Column capacity
For lymphoid cells from blood, bone marrow or tissue:
Up to 10
7
magnetically labeled cells from up to 2×10
8
total cells.
For the capacity of cells from other tissues, e.g., neural tissues, please refer to the data sheet provided with the particular MACS Cell Separation Reagent.
