Mouse B Cell Isolation Kit

$735.00

The Mouse B Isolation Kit was developed with BACS™ Microbubbles for the enrichment of untouched B cells. Unwanted cells are depleted through negative selection.

  • This kit can process up to 1 billion cells
  • Fast & easy workflow enriches splenocytes for B cells in 30 minutes
  • No magnet, no column, no harsh chemicals
  • Microbubble enrichment maintains cell health and physiology

Product Details

The Mouse B Cell Isolation Kit delivers a high purity population of murine B cells that are ready for downstream use. The BACS™ Microbubble workflow is exceptionally gentle on cells, helping to maintain the health and physiology of B cells during enrichment.

Mechanism of Action: The Mouse B Cell Isolation Kit uses a negative selection method to remove unwanted cell populations and effectively enrich B Cells. Unwanted cells are labeled with an optimized cocktail of biotinylated antibodies targeting CD3, CD4, CD8a, CD11b, CD11c, CD49b, CD90.2, CD105, Gr1, Ter119.

How it Works: The biotinylated antibody cocktail is added to the sample to label unwanted cells. BACS™ Microbubbles are added to the sample and bind to the antibody-labeled cells. Microbubbles bound to the undesired cells, quickly and gently float the undesired cells to the surface. B cells, the cells of interest, are pelleted through centrifugation. Microbubble-bound cells and supernatant are easily aspirated away, leaving untouched and enriched B cells healthy and ready for downstream use.

Additional Information:

  • Storage: 4°C
  • Cell Type: B cells
  • Sample Species and Source: Mouse spleen.
  • Cell Separation Method: Negative Selection
  • Capacity: 1 billion cells

This kit comes with:

  • BACS™ Streptavidin Microbubbles
  • Mouse B Cell Biotin Antibody Cocktail
  • Separation Buffer (Ca2+ and Mg2+ free PBS containing 2 mM EDTA, 0.5% biotin-free BSA)
  • 5mL Tubes

For best results, the following supplies are recommended:

  • 20 rpm tube rotator for mixing
  • Centrifuge with swinging bucket rotor
  • Vacuum aspirator
  • 30 μm cell strainer

Key Features

The Mouse B Cell Isolation Kit leverages Akadeum’s novel Buoyancy Activated Cell Sorting (BACS™) technology to deliver a highly enriched population of healthy, viable B cells. BACS™ Microbubbles are fast, easy-to-use, and gentle on cells. The BACS™ Microbubble isolation platform minimizes handling by enabling single-tube processing, limiting unnecessarily loss of cells. The B cell isolation protocol is fast and simple, taking just 30 minutes and not requiring magnets or columns. The result is a population of highly pure B cells that are healthy and ready for downstream use.

Elevated Solutions for Sample Preparation:

  • Exceptionally gentle B cell enrichment
  • Fast and easy workflow; complete in ~30-minutes
  • Single tube processing that minimizes sample handling and loss of target cells

Elegant in Simplicity, Powerful in Application

BACS™ Microbubble technology harnesses the power of buoyancy to provide a fast, easy, and gentle cell isolation. Our novel technology couples performance, ease, and quality, bringing cell separation to the next level.


Experience the benefits of a microbubble workflow. Akadeum’s Microbubbles Are:

  • Magnet-free: Cells are not subjected to harsh magnetic forces.
  • Column-free: BACSTM workflow is easy-to-use and does not require onerous and expensive columns.
  • Gentle on cells: Harnessing the power of buoyancy, BACSTM Microbubbles swiftly and gently remove unwanted cells via floatation.
  • Fast, reliable, and scalable: The simple BACSTM Microbubbles protocol delivers reproducible results and can be easily scaled for larger volumes.

Data

Untouched B cells were isolated from splenocytes using the Mouse B Cell Isolation Kit (12210-110). Isolated cells were labeled with CD3-APC and CD19-FITC. The fluorescently labeled cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. Debris and dead cells were excluded from analysis.

Workflow in Use: Mouse B Cell Isolation

The Mouse B Cell Isolation Kit allows researchers to obtain highly-enriched, high-quality B cells using our exceptionally gentle workflow that does not sacrifice purity for quality. Akadeum’s negative selection process maintains cell health and physiology, and the isolated cells retain their activation and differentiation potential. The microbubble isolation process does not disturb B Cell Receptors (BCRs) or skew the isolated population.
