Density gradient separation of islets from exocrine tissue is usually performed with Ficoll. However, this reagent adds significantly to the cost of the isolation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of Dextran as a potential low-cost substitute for Ficoll and to evaluate the effects of cold storage of the pancreatic digest prior to purification. Pancreases were procured from...
