Ficoll-Paque is one of the leading reagents for the preparation of human mononuclear cells from bone marrow and blood. With a proven track record of over 30 years and cited in thousands of peer-reviewed articles, it has a solid reputation for consistent performance and reproducible results.
Ficoll-Paque products are solutions of high molecular weight sucrose polymers and sodium diatrizoate. Ficoll-Paque density gradient media are excellent for isolating viable mononuclear cells in high yield and purity from small or large volumes of blood, using a simple and rapid centrifugation procedure. Ficoll-Paque PLUS is a sterile, ready-to-use product and is recommended for the routine separation of mononuclear cells.
In 2005 GE Healthcare launched Ficoll Paque PREMIUM, manufactured under a Quality Management System certified to ISO 13485:2003. Ficoll-Paque PREMIUM is designed for the preparation of human mononuclear cells. Note: Ficoll-Paque is considered a common laboratory reagent and is not classified as a medical device.
