Prefixation of Neutrophils for Neutrophil Antibody Testing [PDF]
The granulocyte immunofluorescence test based on flow cytometry is still the most commonly used method for detecting antineutrophil antibodies. We questioned whether neutrophil prefixation is necessary for this test.Three pretreatment methods using paraformaldehyde were compared: unfixed, short-fixed (3 minutes 40 seconds), and long-fixed (10 minutes ...

Neutrophils are short-lived effector cells of the innate immune system that form the first line of defense against microbial pathogens.1 Recent studies show that, by migrating to bone marrow, these cells can also induce (VACV)-specific T cell responses.2 Neutrophils polarize to distinct phenotypes in response to environmental cytokine/chemokine signals.
