For magnetic isolation of blood neutrophils, red blood cells were lysed as above, and single cell suspensions were washed in selection media. Cells were then incubated with Fc block for 10 min on ice as noted above. Neutrophils were isolated using the MojoSort Mouse Ly6G Selection Kit (Biolegend, Cat# 480,058) according to manufacturer’s instructions. For magnetic isolation of femur bone marrow LSK + cells, single cell suspensions were blocked and stained with biotinylated-lineage cocktail (Biolegend, Cat# 133,307) and stem/progenitor cells were negatively selected using streptavidin-conjugated nanobeads (Biolegend, Cat# 480,015). Lineage-negative cells were then stained with c-Kit-APC (Biolegend, Cat# 105,811) for positive selection with anti-APC-conjugated nanobeads (Biolegend, Cat# 480,071). Finally, Lin-cKit + bone marrow cells were stained with Sca1-APC (Biolegend, Cat# 108,111) for positive selection with anti-APC-conjugated nanobeads. The resulting neutrophil and LSK + cell populations were stored in Qiazol lysis reagent (Qiagen, Cat# 79,306) at -80 °C.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
