title: Purification of gastric mucosal ECL cells from a crude elutriation fraction.
abstract: Acid-secreting parietal cells from the gastric mucosa are widely studied as a model in studies on ion transport and the endocrine/paracrine ECL cells effectively control parietal cell function. Discontinuous gradients of iodixanol for the purification of ECL cells were subsequently simplified to the use of a density barrier. This technique is now commonly used following initial centrifugal elutriation.
