One step centrifugation procedure used commonly for separation of blood cells is the ficoll gradient centrifugation. In this method, after centrifugation, the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are located on the top of the separation fluid, whereas other blood cells erythrocytes and granulocytes sediment to the bottom. In the present study 75% of lymphocyte suspension could be separated by using a one-step density gradient centrifugation of sodium heparin blood with Sucrose. Sucrose was diluted into different concentrations using miliQ water (10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%,70%, 80%, 90%, 100%,). 4 mL of diluted blood was layered on 4 mL of each sucrose solution and centrifuged for 45 minutes at 1000 rpm. Clear separation of PBMCs could be observed in solution with 40% sucrose. The separated PBMCs were analysed in haeme analyser which showed 75% lymphocytes, 23% monocytes and 2% of other cells.

Some of the adenovirus type of Rosen’s group II exhibit weak agglutinating properties for monkey blood cells. The relation of these haemagglutinins to haemagglutinins for rat blood cells and to the infectious virus was studied by cross-absorption with blood cells and by density gradient centrifugation with caesium chloride. In the virus types studied (type 9, 13, and a wild strain of type 15) one part of the monkey cell haemagglutinin was associated with the virion and, for type 9 and 15, was inseparable from the virus-associated haemagglutinin for rat blood cells. In density gradient centrifugation a second haemagglutinin for monkey blood cells was found, separable from the virus particles and associated with the portion of higher buoyant density of the soluble haemagglutinin for rat blood cells. In type 13 and 23, haemagglutinins for monkey and rat blood cells can be separated by absorption with the heterologous blood cell species.Haemagglutinins for monkey cells are resistant to trypsin or trypsin plus subsequent heating to 55°C, in contrast to haemagglutinins for rat blood cells. Monkey cell haemagglutination is reversibly inhibited by the presence of CsCl.In haemagglutination-inhibition tests it was found that haemagglutination with monkey blood cells is more difficult to be inhibited by immune serum that haemagglutination with rat blood cells.

AbstractA consistent and reproducible method is described for isolating pure populations of microfilariae of Litomosoides carinii, Brugia pahangi, B. malayi and Dipetalonema viteae, free of cells, from blood, by density gradient centrifugation on Percoll in 0.25M sucrose. The recovery of the microfilariae was 85 to 97%.

The extract from Penicillum stoliniferum, known as statolon, has been purified by density gradient centrifugation. These centrifuge fractions contained virus particles that are an interferon inducer in mice or in tissue culture. Highly purified preparations of these particles are difficult to enumerate by electron microscopy because of aggregation. Therefore a study of staining methods was undertaken.
