CD24- CD44+ Breast Cancer Stem Cell Products

Description

Cancer stem cells are a rare population of self-renewing cells found in tumors and in cancer cell lines. Methods that use positive or negative selection to enrich for cancer stem cells can lead to poor recovery and low cell purity as well as the loss of valuable tissue samples and resources. MagCellect products are designed for the isolation of cells in a "liquid phase". MagCellect technology is based on the use of ferrofluids or magnetic nanoparticles that have no magnetic memory (superparamagnetic) and behave like colloidal particles. This feature allows the ferrofluids to remain in solution without the need for mixing and additionally allows for efficient diffusion kinetics during the binding reaction. The proprietary manufacturing technology of MagCellect Ferrofluids generates particles with higher ligand binding capacity per mass compared to many other larger diameter magnetic particles.
