Anti-Ter-119 MicroBeads were used for positive selection
or depletion
of mature erythrocytes and erythroid precursor cells from mouse bone marrow, fetal liver, or spleen. They were also used in combination with CD45 MicroBeads for enrichment of human cells from bone marrow of chimeric mice by depletion of mouse hematopoietic cells
, for isolation of erythrocytes from immunodeficient mice
, and for depletion of red blood cells as an alternative method to osmotic lysis
. Furthermore, they were used to isolate erythrocytes in an experimental mouse model of malaria.
