NCAM1/CD56 Positive Cell Isolation Kit
The NCAM1/CD56 Positive Cell Isolation Kit is designed to magnetically separate NCAM1/CD56-expressing cells from a complex immune cell population. This kit is optimized for the isolation of NCAM1/CD56-positive cells from normal human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Your PBMCs are incubated with the antibody:bead complex and placed on a magnet for quick and easy separation. The NCAM1/CD56 positive cells are immobilized along the side of the tube by the magnet, while undesired NCAM1/CD56 negative cells remain in suspension for easy removal.

Natural Killer (NK) cells are effector cells of the innate immune system. These lymphocytes display cytotoxic activity when activated and are of interest in the field of cancer immunotherapy. NCAM1/CD56 is a canonical marker of NK cells and is present in most stages of NK cell development. In PBMCs derived from healthy individuals, about 10-30% of the cells are NCAM1/CD56+ NK cells.
