CellTrend has established in-vitro test systems on primary human leukocytes, whereby various subpopulations derived from human peripheral blood by density gradient centrifugation or by magnetic beat isolation are used:
- Neutrophils
- Monocytes
- Dendritic cells
- CD-4-Lymphocytes
- CD-8-Lymphocytes
- B-Lymphocytes
- Natural killer cells
The following assays are used to determine immunological effects:
- Cytotoxicity-Assay against tumor cells
- Migration-Assay
- Proliferation-Assay
- Apoptosis-Assay
- Reactive oxygen species
- Cytokine-Release
- Cell surface antigens
Study designs as well as the test systems themselves are individually adapted to customers needs.
