CMFDA Labeling of Platelet
(Viral Immunity & Pathogenesis Group, the Université Catholique de Louvain)
CMFDA (5-chloromethylfluorescein diacetate) is a lipophilic tracer that has an enormous advantage over ordinary tracers (e.g. FITC) because it can be introduced into live (!) cells. Once inside the cell this dye undergo some covalent changes restricting from its passgae to extracellular milieu.

Platelet-associated Ig (PAIg) Elution
(Viral Immunity & Pathogenesis Group, the Université Catholique de Louvain)
Platelet-associated Ig (PAIg) could be eluted from the platelets. As a result of this procedure platelets get destroyed and the eluted Ig is formed of platelet surface-bound Ig and , mainly, of internal pools of Ig (from a-granules). That is why the caution must be taken when interpreting results.
