Functionally Active Eosinophil Purification from Peripheral Blood

The choice of isolation technique for human peripheral blood eosinophils contributes to the understanding of clinically relevant data derived from in vitro research. Since the 1990s, eosinophils have been conventionally isolated via density gradient centrifugation followed by negative immunomagnetic selection using anti-CD16 antibody-coated magnetic beads. Due to recent advancements in molecular techniques, “newer” methods have been made …
