For More InformationFactors That Affect PBMC Viability And Recovery
I’ve spent many years working with blood and have seen quite a lot of odd issues arise that impact cell viability and recovery. Such as walking across a parking lot in 30-degree weather with freshly collected blood set inside an insulated box, only to have the temperature of the blood drop enough to cause the…

Natural killer (NK) cells play a critical role in the innate immune system and represent the first line of defense against pathogens and tumor cells. Involved in immune surveillance, NK cells patrol the body looking for infected or cancerous cells. While other immune cells recognize the presence of antibodies on the MHC receptor of infected…
