Isolation of target cells with StraightFrom MicroBeads is based on positive selection. Get your target cells in three easy steps: add the MicroBeads of choice, incubate the sample for magnetic labeling, and separate cells over a column. 

Leukocyte subsets can be purified either manually using a MACS® Separator or automated, using the MultiMACS™ Cell24 Separator Plus. Cells from whole blood can be isolated with the autoMACS® Pro Separator or the MultiMACS™ X.

Conventional protocols require the isolation of PBMCs by density gradient centrifugation before target cell isolation. The innovative StraightFrom Technology omits this time-consuming step delivering target cells in under 30 minutes.

We offer tailored StraightFrom MicroBead Kits for cell isolation from whole blood, buffy coats, LRSCs, or Leukopak®. 

Depending on the starting material, volumes and leukocyte concentrations highly differ. All kits have been developed to meet the requirements in terms of cell purity and recovery rates.
