Control Liposome (CAT#: CLBD002LY)

Description
Control Liposome are recognized and phagocytosed by the same mechanism as Clodronate Liposome, which do not contain clodronate, thus the phagocytic cells are not killed. However, phagocytes do respond to the ingestion of control liposomes by cytokine secretion, temporary suspension of phagocytic activity and other responses.

FAQs Customer Reviews Related Sections
  1. What are control liposomes, and how do they function in research?

    Control Liposomes are liposomal formulations that are recognized and phagocytosed by phagocytic cells using the same mechanism as clodronate liposomes

  2. Are control liposomes harmful to phagocytic cells?

    Control Liposomes do not kill phagocytic cells. While they are engulfed by these immune cells, they do not contain cytotoxic agents.

  3. What types of assays can be employed to assess the effects of control liposomes?

    Various assays may be employed, including flow cytometry to analyze phagocytic activity, and cell viability assays to monitor the health of phagocytes following treatment with control liposomes.

  4. How should control liposomes be stored for optimal use?

    Control liposomes should be stored in dark at 4°C and do not freeze
