Category: Cell Biology and Cell Culture: Cell Cycle Protocols

protocol describes a method for the synchronization of cell populations using centrifugal elutriation. The method relies on the fact that cell size increases linearly as cells proceed through the cell cycle. Cells of similar size (and cell cycle phase) are eluted stepwise from the cell chamber, with the smallest size (those in early G1) being eluted first. Using this procedure, it is possible to obtain relatively pure populations of cells at various points in G1, S, and G2/M. - [Read Cell Synchronization Using Centrifugal Elutriation Protocol]

Determination of the Extinction Coefficient for a Protein of Unknown Concentration. The concentration can be determined for a solution of a pure protein with unknown extinction coefficient. - [Read Determination of the Extinction Coefficient for a Protein of Unknown Concentration]

Category: Immunology: Mononuclear Cell Isolation Protocols: B Lymphocyte Isolation Protocols

Protocol describes the purification of mouse T cells, B cells, and T cell subsets using magnetic bead separation. Isolation of cell subsets using magnetic beads is quick, simple, and reliable and can result in high yields of very pure cells. - [Read Fractionation of T and B Cells Using Magnetic Beads Protocol]

This bioassay utilises cultured H-4-II-E rat hepatoma cells to assess the aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) inducing potencies of planar aromatic hydrocarbons and/or contaminated environmental samples.  The response of the cells to pure test chemicals or extracts of mixtures is compared with their response to the standard 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). - [Read H-4-II-E Rat Hepatoma Cell Bioassay Protocol]

Category: Primary Cell Isolation and Culture Protocols: Laser Capture Microdissection Protocols

LCM technology can harvest the cells of interest directly or can isolate specific cells by cutting away unwanted cells to give histologically pure enriched cell populations. A variety of downstream applications exist: DNA genotyping and loss-of-heterozygosity (LOH) analysis, etc. Protocol provides a thorough description of LCM techniques, with an emphasis on tips and troubleshooting advice derived from LCM users. The total time required to carry out this protocol is typically 1–1.5 h. - [Read Laser-capture Microdissection Protocol]

Although Percoll gradients were able to provide a purified sporocyst fraction, because these particles do not all band in a discrete manner in such gradients, they were unable to provide a simultaneous isolation of a pure oocyst wall fraction. Gradients formed from this protocol on the other hand are able to provide purified sporocysts and oocyst walls in the same gradient. - [Read Purification of Oocyst Walls and Sporocysts from Toxoplasma gondii Protocol]
