As a result, the non‑target cells become bound to the magnetic beads via the antibody complexes, while the target NK cells remain unlabeled. Subsequently, the cell suspension is transferred to a polystyrene tube and placed within the magnetic field of the sorter. Under the influence of the magnetic field, the magnetically labeled non‑target cells adhere to the tube wall, whereas the unlabeled NK cells remain in the supernatant. This supernatant constitutes the NK cell‑enriched fraction after removal of the non‑target cells.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 22%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReactivity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 78%;\"\u003eHuman\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 22%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMagnetic Bead Size\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 78%;\"\u003e150 nm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 22%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeparation Method\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 78%;\"\u003eColumn-Free\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 22%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelection Strategy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 78%;\"\u003eNegative Selection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 22%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStability \u0026amp; Storage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 78%;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore protected from light at 2–8 °C; do not freeze.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eBackground\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color:#000000\"\u003eHuman NK cells (Natural Killer Cells) are key effector cells of the innate immune system, accounting for 5%–20% of peripheral blood lymphocytes. They can directly kill virus-infected and tumor cells without prior antigen sensitization and secrete large amounts of cytokines to regulate immune responses, making them a crucial focus of research in tumor immunity, anti-infectious immunity, and immunotherapy. NK cells isolated using an NK cell negative selection kit are suitable for research scenarios where direct surface molecule labeling might interfere with downstream applications; the purified NK cells can be immediately used for flow cytometry, cell culture, or DNA\/RNA extraction, among other downstream assays.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eProtocol\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display:inline; white-space:nowrap;\"\u003eNote: This kit does not include sorting buffer; please provide it separately.
