General description
Ficoll® 400 is a non-ionic synthetic polymer of sucrose used for cell separation and organ isolation.
Application
Suitable for
- hybridization experiments to reduce non-specific binding of labeled probes to the membrane
- preparation of DNA loading buffer (15% Ficoll®, 0.25% bromophenol blue and 0.25% xylene cyanol FF
- separation of cells with similar density but different size (PBMC from human peripheral blood, bone marrow and umbilical cord blood)
- producing density gradients to separate subcellular components
- vitrification of cell and tissue samples.
- to compare the effect of different perfusates on Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV).
Used for cell separation and organelle isolation.
Features and Benefits
- free from DNases, RNases, phosphatases and proteases
- preserves functional and morphological integrity of the separated cells
Other Notes
A nonionic synthetic polymer of sucrose.

Preservation of cell and tissue samples from endangered species is a part of biodiversity conservation strategy. Therefore, setting up proper cell and tissue cryopreservation methods is very important as these tissue samples and cells could be used to reintroduce the

Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is a compensatory physiological mechanism in the lung that optimizes the matching of ventilation to perfusion and thereby maximizes gas exchange. Historically, HPV has been primarily studied in isolated perfused/ventilated lungs; however, the results of these

The ability to genetically manipulate organisms has led to significant insights into functional genomics in many species. In birds, manipulation of the genome is hindered by the inaccessibility of the one-cell embryo. During embryonic development, avian primordial germ cells (PGCs)
