Selection guide for human T cell isolation

Which human T cell isolation kit is right for your application and sample type? Dynabeads has kits optimized for specific sample types broadly for whole blood, mononuclear cells (MNC) and bone marrow, or for those focused directly on MNC.

 Highest purity for molecular assays Affordable & pure, flow-compatible cells Extreme purity & physiological quality Untouched—most physiological relevant cells
