ACK Lysis Buffer
ACK Lysis Buffer is a specialized solution for lysing red blood cells (RBCs) in cell suspensions, containing ammonium chloride, potassium bicarbonate, and EDTA. It induces osmotic lysis of RBCs while maintaining optimal pH levels and aiding membrane disruption. Widely used in cell biology and immunology research, it facilitates the removal of RBCs from samples, particularly valuable in flow cytometry experiments and cell culture protocols.
