About 20 mL of whole blood was collected by venipuncture in Vacutainer tubes containing EDTA (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) at each study visit. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were separated by Ficoll gradient centrifugation (Lympholyte; Cedarlane Labs, Hornby, ON, Canada) and washed twice in phosphate-buffered saline solution.24 Freshly isolated PBMCs were used immediately for immune phenotyping and activation staining. About 10 mL of whole blood was collected by BD Vacutainer Plus Plastic Serum. After centrifuge, serum was stored in aliquots 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.
