Abstract

A flow cytometric procedure is described for the isolation of human basophils. The basophils are isolated by cell sorting after passive sensitization with mouse FITC-IgE anti-DNP, and the isolated basophils exhibit characteristic histamine release in response to incubation with DNP21-human serum albumin conjugates. Using this method, 1-4 X 10(5) basophils can be isolated at greater than or equal to 98% purity from approximately 30 ml whole blood in a 2 h sorting procedure.
