Y. Okamura et al., ISOLATION OF VIABLE CELLS IN CANINE TRANSMISSIBLE SARCOMA (CTS) USINGDENSITY GRADIENT CENTRIFUGATION, Journal of veterinary medical science, 58(11), 1996, pp. 1149-1151
Density gradient centrifugation using Ficoll-Conray solution was attem
pted to isolate viable canine transmissible sarcoma (CTS) cells. The v
iability of isolated tumor cells increased from about 50% to >90%, and
the yield of CTS cells was >50% with over 99% purity, in when an isol
ation solution density of 1.05 was used.
