✦ Synopsis


An initial preparation of rat hepatocytes containing approximately 30% couplets was enriched by centrifugal elutriation. Of the couplets loaded onto the elutriator, 87% were eluted at medium flow rates of 60 to 80 ml/min at a rotor speed of 1.100 rpm; cells eluted in this range maintained a viability of more than 95%. Peak fractions were enriched in couplets to 84.5% f 2.6%. After elutriation, couplets retained the ability to secrete fluorescent cholephiles into sealed canalicular vacuoles. The preparation can now be used in hepatobiliary and hepatotoxicity studies not possible with preparations in which they are minor components. (HEPATOLOGY 1991;14: 180-183.)

Counterflow centrifugal elutriation (CCE) has been used to fractionate cell populations on the basis of sedimentation properties, with minimal perturbation of metabolic function. Therefore, it is an ideal method for the isolation of cell cycle phase specific populations. We present modifications of

A centrifugal elutriator rotor was used to separate suspensions of micronized hydrocortisone acetate and prednisolone acetate. Up to five distinct particle fractions could beisolated from a single parent suspension, and reasonable reproducibility was exhibited between various elutriator runs. Arithm
