title: A one step cell sorting procedure for the enrichment of murine bone marrow CFU-S which is independent of their proliferative activity.
abstract: Murine bone marrow day 9 splenic colony-forming units (CFU-S) have been concentrated using a one step cell sorting technique. CFU-S were discriminated on the basis of their rather high forward light scatter intensity, their high affinity for the lectin WGA and the absence of a cell surface marker expressed by the majority of hematopoietic cells and recognized by the RA3-5B3 MoAb. This procedure permitted a 40-fold enrichment of quiescent or cycling CFU-S (obtained from normal and Ara-C-treated mice respectively) and did not alter their differentiation pathways towards the various myeloid lineages.
