Product news

This month, Miltenyi Biotec will be releasing a new wave of kits for the magnetic isolation of mouse CD4+, CD8a+, or pan–T cells. These are the perfect tools for customers who want to achieve target cell populations with both high purity and unmatched recovery—the unique antibody cocktail is the key.

The next generation T cell isolation kits by Miltenyi Biotec rely on the world-wide tried and tested MACS® Technology, which has been cited in more than 12,000 publications. Optimized for T cells from spleen or lymph nodes, the kits allow the user to isolate cells within 45 minutes. Since the gentle magnetic separation procedure results in cell populations with excellent viability, the cells can be used for a multitude of applications.

Just to name a few: adoptive transfer experiments, T cell proliferation assays, coculture with dendritic cells, and cytokine analysis. For fully automated cell separation, the kits can be combined ideally with the autoMACS® Pro Separator. To simplify and speed up the cell separation procedure even further, Miltenyi Biotec also offers the perfect device for the gentle automated dissociation of tissues to yield single-cell suspensions—the gentleMACS™ Dissociator.

One of Miltenyi Biotec’s main topics in 2010 will be autoimmunity.

AntibodiesAntibodies are used in techniques such as confocal and fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, ELISA, ELISPOT, immunohistochemistry, western blotting and immunopreciptation. Select specific antigen reactivity, high specific affinity, low non-specific binding, monoclonal or polyclonal, primary or secondary antibodies and associated conjugates such as an enzyme or dye for visualization.Cell / Tissue CultureCell culture or tissue culture is used to study the biology of cells or tissues and to isolate cellular products in an environment which can be manipulated and well defined. Accurately control your culture environment with bioreactors or culture incubators, bind your cells to a surface or together with an extracellular matrix. Distinguish cell types with differential media or proliferate cells with certain characteristics using selective media. Enrich your media with supplements such as growth factors, sera and vitamins. Find the best cell and tissue culture products, kits and equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Cell Lines Stem Cells and Primary CellsPrimary cell cultures, established cell lines and stem cells are vital for <i>in vitro</i> and <i>ex vivo</i> experimentation. High-quality cells, optimized for your applications, alongside optimized cell substrates, growth medium and supplements, are critical for experimental success. Explore a range of cells suitable for your applications, including isogenic cell lines, competent cells, induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cell lines, fungal/bacterial/mammalian cell lines, stem cells and cancer cell lines.
