  • ISOLATION OF EXTRACELLULAR VESICLES BY PRECIPITATION OR IMMOBILIZATION USING POLYETHYLENIMINE AND POLYETHYLENIMINE-COATED SOLID SUPPORTS
    Publication number: 20210238584
    Abstract: The present application relates to methods for the isolation of EVs from a sample containing EVs, the method comprising: (i) contacting the sample with one or more polyethylenimines to form an EV-polyethylenimine complex; and (ii) separating the EV-polyethylenimine complex from the sample. Also included in the application are kits for performing the methods for isolating EVs and methods of diagnosis and therapy using the EVs isolated using the described methods.
