▲ Note: Make sure the antigen epitope that is necessary for downstream applications is conserved during the dissociation procedure. 

For a detailed list of antigen compatibilities and the right choice of NTDK refer to the table on  NTDK product page at www.miltenyibiotec.com.

In case your epitope of interest is not listed please contact technical support.  You  can also perform  a staining experiment with this antibody after using different enzyme concentrations, i.e., different dilutions of Enzyme P or T (e.g., for NTDK (P) 1:5, 1:10; for NTDK (T)  1:2.5)  prior  to  isolation experiments to analyze the stability of your antibody epitope.

1. Dissociate mouse neonatal brain using the Neural Tissue Dissociation Kit (P), including the post-dissociation wash steps. Follow the protocol of the kit data sheet.

2. Determine number of cells in the sample.

3. Centrifuge the cell suspension at 300×g for 10 minutes. Aspirate supernatant completely.

 Notes:

· Volumes for magnetic labeling given below are for up to 1×10⁷ total cells. When working with fewer than 1×10⁷ cells, use the same volumes as indicated. When working with higher cell numbers, scale up all reagent volumes and total volumes accordingly (e.g. for 2×10⁷ total cells, use twice the volume of all indicated reagent volumes and total volumes).

· For optimal performance it is important to obtain a single‑cell suspension before magnetic labeling. Pass cells through 70 μm nylon mesh (Pre-Separation Filters, 70 μm, # 130-095-823) to remove cell clumps which may clog the column. Moisten filter with buffer before use.

· Always wait until the column reservoir is empty before proceeding to the next step. The recommended incubation temperature is 2–8 °C. Higher temperatures and/or longer incubation times may lead to non‑specific cell labeling. Working on ice may require increased incubation times.

Magnetic separation: Depletion of CD45⁺ cells

1. Resuspend cells in 90 μL of PEB buffer per 1×10⁷ total cells.

2. Add 10 μL of CD45 MicroBeads.

3. Mix well and incubate for 15 minutes in the refrigerator (2−8 °C).

4. Wash cells by adding 1 mL of PEB buffer per 1×10⁷ cells and centrifuge at 300×g for 5 minutes. Aspirate supernatant completely.

5. Place LD Column in the magnetic field of a suitable MACS® Separator.
▲ Note: Automated separation can be performed using the autoMACS® Pro or the autoMACS Separator with the following program: Depletes.

6. Prepare the column by rinsing it with 3 mL of buffer.

7. Apply cell suspension onto the column.

8. Collect unlabeled cells that pass through. Perform three washing steps with 3 mL of PEB buffer each.

9. Collect total effluent; this is the CD45– fraction.

10. (Optional, if CD45+ cells are needed) Remove column from the separator and place it on a suitable collection tube. Pipette 5 mL of PEB buffer onto the column. Immediately flush out the magnetically labeled cells by firmly pushing the plunger into the column.

11. Proceed to "Magnetic separation: Enrichment of CD31+ cells".

Magnetic separation: Enrichment of CD31⁺ cells

1. Work with the CD45- fraction. Centrifuge cell suspension at 300×g for 10 minutes. Aspirate supernatant completely.

2. Resuspend cell pellet in 90 μL of PEB buffer.

3. Add 10 μL of CD31 MicroBeads.

4. Mix well and incubate for 15 minutes in the refrigerator (2−8 °C).

5. Wash cells by adding 1 mL of PEB buffer and centrifuge at 300×g for 5 minutes. Aspirate supernatant completely.

6. Place MS Column in the magnetic field of a suitable MACS Separator.
▲ Note: Automated separation can be performed by using the autoMACS Pro or the autoMACS Separator with the following program: Posseld.

7. Prepare column by rinsing with 1 mL of PEB buffer.

8. Apply cell suspension onto the column.

9. Collect unlabeled cells that pass through. Perform three washing steps with 0.5 mL of PEB buffer each.

10. Collect total effluent. This is the CD45–/CD31– cell fraction.

11. Remove column from the separator and place it on a suitable collection tube.

12. Pipette 1 mL of PEB buffer onto the column. Immediately flush out the magnetically labeled cells by firmly pushing the plunger into the column. This is the CD45–/CD31+ target cell fraction.

13. To increase the purity of CD31+ cells, the eluted fraction can be enriched over a second MS Column. Repeat the magnetic separation procedure as described in steps 6 to 12 using a new column.

14. Proceed to "Flow cytometry analysis".
