Immunoisolation: at a turning point
Immunology Today

Abstract:
The principle of immunoisolation is to separate transplanted cells from the hostile immunological environment of the host by a selectively permeable membrane. Low-molecular-weight substances such as nutrients, electrolytes, oxygen and biotherapeutic agents are exchanged across the membrane, while immunocytes, antibodies and other transplant-rejection effector mechanisms are excluded. Here, Robert Lanza and William Chick review these systems.

01:20Overview Of Cell Separation And Isolation
Cell separation was first achieved in 1964 by S. H. Seal, who separated large tumor cells from the smaller blood cells using filtration. Two years later, Pohl and Hawk performed experiments on how cells respond differently to a nonuniform electric field based on the cell type. Such observations were the inception of cell separation methods, which allow isolating a single cell type from a heterogeneous sample.
01:20Immunoprecipitation
Immunoprecipitation, or IP, is a widely used technique that employs protein-antibody interactions to isolate proteins or protein complexes in their native state for studying protein-protein interactions, quaternary structures, or supramolecular complexes. Various modifications of the technique, including chromatin IP, cross-linking IP, and fluorescence IP, are commonly used.
