Hi Jackie Saleh,

If you are looking for a "home-made"reagents to separate human 
granulocytes, here you have a very good protocol. We have done some studies 
with granulocytes in the past and the protocol is very good:
J Immunol Methods 1981;40(1):115-6
A simple technique for simultaneous human leukocytes separation.
Bicalho HM, Gontijo CM, Nogueira-Machado JA
By centrifuging heparinised human blood through a discontinuous 
Ficoll-Hypaque density gradient, it is possible to separate simultaneously 
mononuclear cells, neutrophils, and eosinophils.

I hope it helps,

Good luck,

Olindo
