Cfu gm

Manufactured by STEMCELL

The CFU-GM assay is a laboratory technique used to quantify the number of granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming units (CFU-GM) present in a sample. CFU-GM are a subset of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells that can give rise to granulocytes and macrophages. The assay measures the ability of these cells to proliferate and differentiate into colonies of granulocytes and macrophages when cultured in a semi-solid medium.

Bone marrow cells (2×104) from WT or CGD mice were seeded in semisolid Methocult GF M3534 medium containing rmSCF, rmIL-3 and rhIL-6 for detection of CFU-GM (Stem Cell Technologies). L-butionine-sulfoxamine (BSO, Sigma-Aldrich) was added to methylcellulose media at the indicated concentrations at the time of plating.

Quantifying CFU-GM Colonies in Murine Bone Marrow

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bone marrow cells (2×104) from WT or CGD mice were seeded in semisolid Methocult GF M3534 medium containing rmSCF, rmIL-3 and rhIL-6 for detection of CFU-GM (Stem Cell Technologies). Number of colonies that contained more than 50 cells was counted on day 7. Colony numbers from 20,000 BMMCs are shown. The size of the colonies was also measured on day 7. Colony morphology was scored on the basis of Stemcell Technologies criteria. L-butionine-sulfoxamine (BSO, Sigma-Aldrich) was added to methylcellulose media at the indicated concentrations at the time of plating.

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.
