Can plasma or serum be run on Lonza's FlashGel™ System without prior purification?

No. The DNA or RNA will need to be extracted and purified before the samples can be loaded and run on the FlashGel™ Cassettes.

How are Lonza's mononuclear cells isolated?

Lonza's mononuclear cells are isolated from bone marrow, cord blood, or peripheral blood via density gradient centrifugation

What cells make up the mononuclear cell population?

Mononuclear cells are any blood cells with a rounded nucleus including lymphocytes (T-cells, B-cells, and Natural Killer [NK] Cells), monocytes, and dendritic cells.

How are Lonza's CD14+ monocytes isolated?

Lonza's CD14+ monocytes are isolated first by obtaining mononuclear cells from peripheral blood via density gradient centrifugation. The CD14+ cells are then isolated form the mononuclear cell population using either positive or negative...

Where are Lonza’s PrSC cells isolated from? What cells will be in the PrSC population?

Lonza’s Prostate Stromal Cells (PrSC) are isolated from the stroma of the prostate. Lonza’s Prostate Stromal Cells (PrSC) are a mixed population of cells, however, the majority of the cells in this population are fibroblastic in origin. It is not...

Where are Lonza’s PrEC cells isolated from?

Lonza obtains our Lonza’s Prostate Epithelial Cells (PrEC) from the glandular epithelium (parenchymal portion) of the prostate which spans the entire prostate and not from one specific region.

What is the recommended media for culturing Lonza's bone marrow stromal cells?

The recommended media for culturing Lonza's bone marrow stromal cells is MyeloCult™ H5100 from StemCell Technologies, Inc.

What cells make up the population of cells in Lonza's bone marrow stromal cells?

The stromal layer is composed of many cell types including fibroblasts, mesenchymal stem cells, adipocytes, endothelial cells, and macrophages.

Where are Lonza’s PrSMC cells isolated from?

Lonza’s Prostate Smooth Muscle Cells (PrSMC) are isolated from the stroma and the vasculature of the prostate. Unfortunately, there is no way to distinguish between smooth muscle cells from the stroma and smooth muscle cells from the vasculature and...

What is the recommended culturing protocol for Lonza's bone marrow stromal cells (2M-302)?

Lonza's bone marrow stromal cells should be thawed according to Lonza's "Procedure for thawing Poietics™ Cells". Upon thaw, cells should be plated at 3,000-4,000 cells per cm² in MyeloCult™ H5100 from StemCell Technologies, Inc. An adherent...
