A New Agarose-Based Method Offers Potential for Extracellular Vesicle Research
A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of California, Davis has developed a novel method for isolating extracellular vesicles (EVs) from cell cultures using agarose beads. The method uses a combination of size-exclusion chromatography and immunoaffinity chromatography to separate the EVs from other components in the cell culture, allowing for a highly specific and efficient isolation of the EVs. This agarose-based method has the potential to be used for isolating EVs from other sources, such as biofluids, with further research.
