General description
Ficoll® PM400 is a synthetic neutral, highly-branched hydrophilic polymer of sucrose with an average molecular weight of 400 000. It has long been used to form density gradients for separating and isolating eukaryotic cells, organelles and bacterial cells, as a stabilizing agent, and as a preparation medium for isolating mononuclear cells. Applications can also be found in defined culture media, nucleic acid hybridization, electrophoresis, and immunological studies.
Application
It also has applications in defined culture media, nucleic acid hybridization, electrophoresis, and immunological studies.
Used for gradient centrifugation in all types of centrifuge rotors and for separation at unit gravity.
Features and Benefits
- For producing density gradients for separation of cells and subcellular components by centrifugation or by sedimentation at unit gravity.
- Neutral, highly branched, hydrophilic polymer of sucrose which dissolves readily in aqueous solution.
- Concentrations of up to 50% (w/v) covering densities of up to 1.2 g/mL can be achieved.
- Better osmotic properties than sucrose.
- Preserves functional and morphological integrity.
- Useful for separating cells that are sensitive to centrifugation and for separating cells of similar density but different size (under conditions of sedimentation at unit gravity).
- Does not penetrate biological membranes.
- Serves as the raw material for preparation of Ficoll-Paque gradients.
- Used in other applications such as electrophoresis, hybridization, cryopreservation, and as a hapten carrier.

The table was compiled to assist the researcher in selecting references most likely to contain relevant information regarding use of Percoll in various cell types.
This page shows methods to remove Percoll from a sample after centrifugation.
Density Marker Beads facilitate Percoll gradient monitoring in biological separations.
The effects of the mononuclear cell separation method described by Bøyum procedure are noted below, since research situations may arise in which they are significant.
Protocolos
The following procedure has been evaluated with Ficoll-Paque PLUS and is recommended for separation of normal blood samples for maximum reproducibility.
To prepare a Percoll gradient, the osmolality of Percoll must be adjusted with saline or cell culture medium to make Percoll isotonic with physiological salt solutions.
