Gentle, tube-based magnetic separation with Invitrogen Dynabeads or MagniSort beads are technologies of choice when you want to isolate high yields of pure, viable and functional cells. Magnetic separation helps ensure that the isolated cells are not affected by passage through a dense column and that the cells’ native characteristics are preserved.

In negative isolation, Dynabeads are used to deplete all the unwanted cells using the supplied antibody mix. Your bead-free and untouched target cells are left in the sample, and can be directly analyzed in a flow cytometer and used in any functional assay.
Should you want to refine for a particular cell type, you can of course add extra antibodies to the antibody mix.
In depletion, cell-specific Dynabeads are used to remove specific unwanted cell types from a mixed cell sample with >99% efficiency. Recover the depleted supernatant—containing all your cells of interest—for downstream assays.
You can also use the positively targeted and bead-bound cells for downstream molecular applications that do not require release of cells.
An entertaining and useful explanation of the differences between the micro- and nano-particle techniques used for cell isolation / cell separation.
Starting with T cell-specific cocktails, use the MagniSort platform to obtain enriched T cells simpler, faster and with significant cost-savings compared to traditional column-based separation methods.
