In the past we have used mono-poly resolving media (Flow Labs), which gives two bands, one containing polynuclear cells, the other containing mononukes. We need to remove the lymphocytes (we have also had a slight problem with some pmn contamination in the mono layer - poly layer, however, has been quite pure). All suggestions warmly welcomed. Email or post.
