Easily and efficiently isolate highly purified human B cells directly from human whole blood samples by immunomagnetic negative selection, without the need for density gradient centrifugation, sedimentation, or red blood cell lysis, with the EasySep? Direct Human B Cell Isolation Kit. Widely used in published research for more than 20 years, EasySep? combines the specificity of monoclonal antibodies with the simplicity of a column-free magnetic system.
In this EasySep? negative selection procedure, unwanted cells are labeled with antibody complexes and magnetic particles called EasySep? Direct RapidSpheres?. Unwanted cells expressing the following markers are targeted for removal: CD2, CD3, CD15, CD16, CD36, CD43, CD56, and CD66b. The magnetically labeled cells are then separated from the untouched desired B cells by using an EasySep? magnet and simply pouring or pipetting the desired cells into a new tube. Following magnetic cell isolation in as little as 20 minutes, the desired B cells are ready for downstream applications such as flow cytometry, culture, or DNA/RNA extraction.

Figure 1. Typical EasySep? Direct Human B Cell Isolation Profile
Starting with human whole blood from normal healthy donors, the typical B cell (CD3-CD19+) content of the non-lysed final isolated fraction is 95.3 ± 2.7% (gated on CD45) or 88.5 ± 11.5% (not gated on CD45). In the above example, the B cell (CD3-CD19+) content of the lysed whole blood start sample and the non-lysed final isolated fraction is 6.2% and 95.9% (gated on CD45), respectively, or 6.2% and 95.8% (not gated on CD45), respectively. The starting frequency of B cells in the non-lysed whole blood start sample above is 0.011% (data not shown).

of the highlighted workflow stage(s). Explore these workflows to learn more about the other products we
offer to support each research area.
Can EasySep™ be used for either positive or negative selection?
Yes. The EasySep™ kits use either a negative selection approach by targeting and removing unwanted cells or a positive selection approach targeting desired cells. Depletion kits are also available for the removal of cells with a specific undesired marker (e.g. GlyA).
How does the separation work?
Magnetic particles are crosslinked to cells using Tetrameric Antibody Complexes (TAC). When placed in the EasySep™ Magnet, labeled cells migrate to the wall of the tube. The unlabeled cells are then poured off into a separate fraction.
Which columns do I use?
The EasySep™ procedure is column-free. That's right - no columns!
How can I analyze the purity of my enriched sample?
The Product Information Sheet provided with each EasySep™ kit contains detailed staining information.
Can EasySep™ separations be automated?
Yes. RoboSep™, the fully automated cell separator, automates all EasySep™ labeling and cell separation steps.
Can EasySep™ be used to isolate rare cells?
Yes. We recommend a cell concentration of 2x108 cells/mL and a minimum working volume of 100 µL. Samples containing 2x107 cells or fewer should be suspended in 100 µL of buffer.
Are the EasySep™ magnetic particles FACS-compatible?
Yes, the EasySep™ particles are flow cytometry-compatible, as they are very uniform in size and about 5000X smaller than other commercially available magnetic beads used with column-free systems.
Can the EasySep™ magnetic particles be removed after enrichment?
No, but due to the small size of these particles, they will not interfere with downstream applications.
Can I alter the separation time in the magnet?
Yes; however, this may impact the kit's performance. The provided EasySep™ protocols have already been optimized to balance purity, recovery and time spent on the isolation.
For positive selection, can I perform more than 3 separations to increase purity?
Yes, the purity of targeted cells will increase with additional rounds of separations; however, cell recovery will decrease.
How does the binding of the EasySep™ magnetic particle affect the cells? is the function of positively selected cells altered by the bound particles?
Hundreds of publications have used cells selected with EasySep™ positive selection kits for functional studies. Our in-house experiments also confirm that selected cells are not functionally altered by the EasySep™ magnetic particles.
If particle binding is a key concern, we offer two options for negative selection. The EasySep™ negative selection kits can isolate untouched cells with comparable purities, while RosetteSep™ can isolate untouched cells directly from whole blood without using particles or magnets.
Kidney transplant outcomes in HLA desensitized patients with pretransplant CDC and/or FCM positive crossmatches
J. Noble et al.
Frontiers in Immunology 2025 Jun
Abstract
BackgroundKidney transplant (KT) candidates with very high calculated panel reactive alloantibody (cPRA >95%) have limited chances to receive an HLA-matched transplant unless they undergo pretransplant desensitization.ObjectiveTo assess the efficacy of immunoadsorption (IA) in desensitizing pretransplant KT candidates with high cPRA and positive crossmatch.Materials and methodsThis was a single-center retrospective cohort study involving highly HLA-sensitized patients (cPRA >85%). Forty-nine patients underwent HLA-incompatible (HLAi) KT, of whom 25 (51%) received kidneys from deceased donors. Of these 49 patients, 23 had either a positive complement-dependent cytotoxic cross-match (CDC) and/or a positive flow cytometry cross-match (FCM). The remaining 26 patients had donor-specific anti-HLA (DSAs) detectable only by Luminex (CDC and FCM cross-matches were negative). Only CDC-positive and FCM-positive patients were desensitized. These 49 patients were compared with 160 patients who had cPRA >85% but underwent HLA-compatible (HLAc) KT, i.e., without pretransplant DSAs.Pretransplant desensitization included IA sessions, rituximab, tacrolimus, steroids, and mycophenolate mofetil. Induction therapy consisted of antithymocyte globulins.ResultsThe mean follow-up duration was 7.4 ± 4 years. At 1-year and at last follow-up, 43 patient and death-censored graft survival rates were similar between HLAc and HLAi patients. However, HLAi patients experienced significantly more biopsy-proven rejections compared to HLAc patients. These rejections were predominantly antibody-mediated. Finally, the rate of infectious complications was similar between HLAc and HLAi patients.ConclusionIA in addition to immunosuppression is an effective option for desensitizing HLAi patients, yielding favorable long-term outcomes.
Novel sACE2-Anti-CD16VHH Fusion Protein Surreptitiously Inhibits SARS-CoV-2 Variant Spike Proteins and Macrophage Cytokines, and Activates Natural Killer Cell Cytotoxicity
Vaccines 2025 Feb
Abstract
Background/Objectives: The SARS-CoV-2’s high mutations and replication rates contribute to its high infectivity and resistance to current vaccinations and treatments. The primary cause of resistance to most current treatments aligns within the coding regions for the spike S protein of SARS-CoV-2 that has mutated. As a potential novel immunotherapy, we generated a novel fusion protein composed of a soluble ACE2 (sACE2) linked to llama-derived anti-CD16 that targets different variants of spike proteins and enhances natural killer cells to target infected cells. Methods: Here, we generated a novel sACE2-AntiCD16VHH fusion protein using a Gly4Ser linker, synthesized and cloned into the pLVX-EF1alpha-IRES-Puro vector, and further expressed in ExpiCHO-S cells and purified using Ni+NTA chromatography. Results: The fusion protein significantly blocked SARS-CoV-2 alpha, beta, delta, gamma, and omicron S-proteins binding and activating angiotensin-converting enzyme receptor-2 (ACE2) on ACE2-expressing RAW-Blue macrophage cells and the secretion of several key inflammatory cytokines, G-CSF, MIP-1A, and MCP-1, implicated in the cytokine release storm (CRS). The sACE2-Anti-CD16VHH fusion protein also bridged NK cells to ACE2-expressing human lung carcinoma A549 cells and significantly activated NK-dependent cytotoxicity. Conclusions: The findings show that a VHH directed against CD16 could be an excellent candidate to be linked to soluble ACE2 to generate a bi-specific molecule (sACE2-AntiCD16VHH) suitable for bridging effector cells and infected target cells to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 variant spike proteins binding to the ACE2 receptor in the RAW-Blue cell line and pro-inflammatory cytokines and to activate natural killer cell cytotoxicity.
Sequence variants influencing the regulation of serum IgG subclass levels
Nature Communications 2024 Sep
Abstract
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the main isotype of antibody in human blood. IgG consists of four subclasses (IgG1 to IgG4), encoded by separate constant region genes within the Ig heavy chain locus (IGH). Here, we report a genome-wide association study on blood IgG subclass levels. Across 4334 adults and 4571 individuals under 18 years, we discover ten new and identify four known variants at five loci influencing IgG subclass levels. These variants also affect the risk of asthma, autoimmune diseases, and blood traits. Seven variants map to the IGH locus, three to the Fcγ receptor (FCGR) locus, and two to the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region, affecting the levels of all IgG subclasses. The most significant associations are observed between the G1m (f), G2m(n) and G3m(b*) allotypes, and IgG1, IgG2 and IgG3, respectively. Additionally, we describe selective associations with IgG4 at 16p11.2 (ITGAX) and 17q21.1 (IKZF3, ZPBP2, GSDMB, ORMDL3). Interestingly, the latter coincides with a highly pleiotropic signal where the allele associated with lower IgG4 levels protects against childhood asthma but predisposes to inflammatory bowel disease. Our results provide insight into the regulation of antibody-mediated immunity that can potentially be useful in the development of antibody based therapeutics. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the main isotype of antibody in human blood. Here the authors describe 14 genetic variants that affect IgG levels in blood. The data provide new insight into the regulation of humoral immunity that could be useful in the development of antibody-based therapeutics.
