Application to Enrich Rare Cell Populations - with Fewer Steps

EpiSep™ device for characterization of breast and lymph node metastasis, stem cell, and many other applications.

In a few rapid and simple steps harvest pure populations from tissue, blood, and marrow for use in cell culture, flow analysis or molecular analysis.

The results of harvesting SK-Mel-28 melanoma cells performed with EpiSep are shown as follows:

 
 
SK-Mel-28 immuno-stained cells captured by using magnetic particles from EpiSep Melanoma with DAPI Kit on a micro pillar slide - using a long pass DAPI filter - 20x   SK-Mel-28 immuno-stained cells captured by using magnetic particles from EpiSep Melanoma with DAPI Kit on a micro pillar slide - using a long pass DAPI filter and brightfield illumination - 20x
 
 
Transferred cells on magnetic particles after 1 hour - 20x   Transferred cells on magnetic particles after 1 hour - 40x
 
 
Transferred cells on magnetic particles 24 hours - 20x   Transferred cells on magnetic particles after 24 hours - 40x
 
 
Transferred cells on magnetic particles after 120 hours - 10x   Transferred cells on magnetic particles after 120 hours - 20x
 
 
Transferred control cells after 24 hours - 20x   Transferred cells treated with magnetic particle releasing solution after 1 hour - 20x
 
 
Transferred cells treated with magnetic particle releasing solution after 24 hours - 20x   Transferred cells treated with magnetic particle releasing solution after 120 hours - 20x

As can be seen from this process, cells are released from the magnetic capture particles in a manner that allows for further processing (such as flow cytometry analysis) free of interference.
