I have an investigator who has been obtaining peritoneal macrophages from
mice by lavage, culturing them overnight with TNF, and then looking by flow
for Ia expression. We weren't getting much expression so I had him stain
with PI at the same time. It turns out that the vast majority of the
cells are dead. He has tried culturing in suspension or letting the cells
adhere and using cold to detach them. Does anyone have a method of
detaching that is easier on the cells and still leaves surface markers
intact? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
