Magnetic cell separation techniques and reagents for pure target cells

Discover our cell isolation techniques, from automated cell separation to manual cell separation, with nano-sized immunomagnetic or micro-sized beads for viable pure cells. No matter what cell separation technique you are using, our beads prevent unspecific targeting, epitope blocking and cell activation, so your target cells retain integrity and characteristics. You can isolate virtually any cell type from a wide range of cell sources, even directly from whole blood, buffy coat, LRSC or Leukopak®.
