General description

Polystyrene microparticles are anionic-stabilizedcolloidal particles. These microparticles are synthesized by the polymerizationof styrene under conditions that produce coalescent bead formation. Polystyrenelatex beads have a wide range of applications including phagocytosis experiments,antibody-mediated agglutination diagnostics, electron microscopy, and cellcounter calibration.

Application

Polystyrene latex beads have been used:
  • inthe flow cytometric assay of endothelial microparticles (EMPs)
  • in thedetection of capsular polysaccharide (CPS) antibody/antigen latex agglutinationtest
  • to evaluate the phagocytic activity in hemocytes of shrimps

Headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) is an easy, effective, and selective technique for the extraction of volatiles and semi-volatiles compounds. For the latter, longer equilibration times are needed, which are typically shortened by applying agitation or heating the sample. A less

It is becoming increasingly apparent that Staphylococcus aureus are able to survive engulfment by macrophages, and that the intracellular environment of these host cells, which is essential to innate host defenses against invading microorganisms, may in fact provide a refuge
