Human monocyte isolation kit

Manufactured by Miltenyi Biotec
Sourced in United States

The Human Monocyte Isolation Kit is a laboratory equipment product designed to isolate human monocytes from whole blood or buffy coat samples. The kit utilizes a magnetic bead-based separation method to effectively separate and enrich the monocyte population from other blood cell types.

Isolation and Cryopreservation of Human Monocytes

PBMCs were isolated using Sepmate tubes (StemCell Technologies) and ACK (ammonium-chloride-potassium) lysing buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) following the manufacturer’s protocol from buffy coats or leukopaks from healthy donors. Human monocytes were isolated from the PBMCs using the human monocyte isolation kit (Miltenyi) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Monocytes were aliquoted and frozen in 10% DMSO and FBS for further use.

Isolation and Differentiation of Monocytes from Healthy Donors

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from de-identified healthy donors (below 35 years old) were obtained from the Stanford Blood Center. Samples were diluted with 20 mL PBS and layered onto 10 mL of Ficoll-Paque (GE Healthcare) using a pasteur pipette. Tubes were centrifuged at 1,500 rpm for 25 min without brake at 20°C. The mononuclear cell layer was transferred to a new 50 mL conical tube, resuspended in 50 mL 1× PBS, and centrifuged at 1,500 rpm for 10 min; this was repeated twice. After centrifugation, monocytes were isolated using a human Monocyte Isolation Kit, (Miltenyi Biotech). Cells were then plated 10 × 106 per 10 cm dish and differentiated for 7 days in Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% penicillin–streptomycin and 50 ng mL−1 M-CSF (Peprotech). Following differentiation, all experimental treatments including controls were done using RPMI containing 0.5% FBS (v/v).

Isolation of Monocytes from Acute Gouty Arthritis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
At first, 30 mL of peripheral blood samples were gained from acute gouty arthritis patients and healthy volunteers. The Ficoll-Paque-PLUS kit (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ, USA) was then used to isolate peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Subsequently, monocytes were isolated from PBMCs using the Human Monocyte Isolation Kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Auburn, CA, USA). The collected cells for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) assay were stored at −80°C.

Bone Marrow and Monocyte-Derived Macrophage Isolation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDMs) were prepared as previously described (Colegio et al., 2014 (link)). For assaying Gdf15 expression in response to various stimuli, BMDMs were plated in either 48 well or 24 well plates at a density of 2.5×105 or 5×105 per well, respectively.
Human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) were derived from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Initially, monocytes were isolated from cryopreserved PBMCs as per protocol from a human monocyte isolation kit (130-096-537, Miltenyi Biotec). Monocytes were then cultured at 2.5E6/ml in X-VIVO 15 serum-free hematopoietic cell medium (Lonza) supplemented with 50 ng/ml of human M-CSF (AF-300-25, Peprotech) for five days. Cells were then re-plated prior to cell treatments.

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.
