## Overview

Percoll 1L is a colloidal silica-based density gradient medium coated with polyvinylpyrrolidone, designed for gentle, iso-osmotic separation of cells, viruses, and subcellular particles. It supports adjustable ionic strength and pH, enabling customizable gradients that preserve sample viability and morphology during centrifugation at moderate speeds.

## Description

Percoll (250ML) is a well-referenced media for density gradient centrifugation of cells, viruses, and subcellular particles. Percoll is composed of colloidal silica coated with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)

## Features

- For separation of cells, subcellular particles and larger viruses (down to ~ 7S) under gentle conditions which preserve viability and morphological integrity
- Non-toxic to cells
- Adjustable to physiological ionic strength and Ph
- Gradients can either be preformed or spontaneously generated by centrifugation at moderate speeds in an angle-head rotor
- Gradients are iso-osmotic throughout and cover a range of densities up to 1.3 g/ml.
