Hi, I am new at sorting, and I would be interested in the response from anyone who has sorted murine B-cells for the production of hybridomas. My thoughts are to sort unstained B-cells from stained non B-cells. Were there benefits in preparing hybridomas from sorted B-cells compared with preparing hybridomas from unsorted spleen cells? If there were benefits, was there a viability problem with B-cells sorted in sterile PBS? Were the B-cells kept cold during the sort? If you were using a FACStarPLUS, what recovery was obtained? How long did it take to sort the cells? Thanks in advance. Delynn Moss CDC Parasitic Diseases Division
