Hi has anyone used EGS or DSG for fixing haematopoietic cells? Trying to optimise fixation of a cell line using EGS first before Formaldehyde due to the structure of the TF complex. Many protocols suggest EGS of 30-45 minutes, i have found even just 20 minutes to be over kill. The formaldehyde is methanol free single ampules. When fixing with just formaldehyde the sonnication profile on the bioanalyser is ideal yet with EGS then formaldehyde i keep seeing 2 peaks, one around 200bp as expected and another around 3kb. Any suggestions?

The immune system’s power comes from its genetic diversity, allowing myriad threats to be neutralized through first recognizing foreign antigens. That diversity is also what makes the immune system so difficult to study. Recent advances in sequencing technology and computational biology, however, are giving researchers new tools to understand immune responses and immune-related diseases in greater detail.
