title: Isolation of human basophils by flow microfluorometry.
abstract: Human mononuclear cells labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-IgE antibody were subjected to flow microfluorometric analysis. Basophils were enriched to 97-99% purity with a 2-step cell sorting procedure. Trypan blue exclusion of sorted cells exceeded 90% and the net yield of the procedure was 15%.
