Table 1. Characterization of contaminating leukocytes.
Samples, see Figure 2 | A. Initial whole Blood Sample | B. CD4+ pluriSelect | C. CD8+ pluriSelect | F. CD4+ MACS | H. CD8+ MACS |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Monocytes (CD14+ SSCmid) % of leukocytes | 6.86 (5.93-8.22) | 0.80 (0.50-2.00) | 0.20 (0.16-0.29) | 3.50* (2.30-4.10) | 3.45* (2.45-4.90) |
NK cells (CD16/56+ and CD16/56/8) % of lymphocytes | 13.72 (10.26-17.16) | 0.11 (0.05-0.19) | 2.29 (1.01-5.73) | 0.72* (0.59-1.35) | 3.02 (1.45-3.98) |
B lymphocytes (CD19+) % of lymphocytes | 14.12 (9.73-16.22) | 0.33 (0.14-0.52) | 0.12 (0.08-0.18) | 0.85* (0.55-1.13) | 1.20* (1.02-1.90) |
Table shows the summary for determination of contaminating leukocytes (n=11). Data show median and range in parenthesis. * shows significant differences between values obtained by MACS and pluriSelect (Sample F vs Sample B or Sample H vs. Sample C from Figure 2). It was regarded statistically significant if p<0.01 (Bonferroni corrected significance).
