Marmoset CD14+ Monocytes
Purified Marmoset CD14+ monocytes (Callithrix jacchus) for macrophage differentiation, dendritic cell generation, and inflammation research. High purity isolation by immunomagnetic selection.
The Marmoset
Callithrix jacchus
Common marmosets are small New World primates increasingly used in neuroscience and aging research.
Their small size, short lifespan, and twinning make them ideal for developmental studies, gene therapy research, and as transgenic models.
Human Similarity
~93% genetic homology with extensive immune receptor cross-reactivity
Global Availability
Multiple geographic origins with established breeding colonies
Regulatory Accepted
FDA & EMA preferred species for biologics safety assessment

Common Research Applications
Marmoset CD14+ Monocytes are research-grade common marmoset primary cells intended for preclinical and translational research. Each order includes a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with lot-specific information including viability and purity data.
CD14+ monocytes are innate immune cells that differentiate into macrophages and dendritic cells, supporting inflammation and phagocytosis research.
Common applications
- Monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation
- Dendritic cell generation
- Inflammation research
- Phagocytosis assays
- Innate immunity studies
Collection, processing & handling
Samples are collected and processed using standardized protocols appropriate to the sample type. Packaging and shipping are configured for temperature-controlled logistics to preserve sample integrity for your specific workflow requirements.
Quality control & documentation
QC testing options available on request, including material-appropriate analytical checks and extended documentation. Standard documentation includes collection/processing metadata, lot identifiers, and chain-of-custody records. Custom QC panels can be configured for GLP or regulatory-facing studies.
Ordering notes
For specific donor criteria, source, volumes, or custom handling requirements, request a quote and include your study specifications. We routinely support longitudinal programs, matched sample sets, and custom collection protocols.

Typical purity is >90% CD14+ monocytes as assessed by flow cytometry. Monocytes are isolated by immunomagnetic positive selection from PBMCs. Purity and viability data are included on the Certificate of Analysis.
Yes. CD14+ monocytes can be differentiated into macrophages using M-CSF (5-7 days) or into monocyte-derived dendritic cells (moDCs) using GM-CSF + IL-4 (5-7 days). Differentiation protocols are available upon request.
Thaw rapidly at 37°C, transfer dropwise into pre-warmed RPMI + 10% FBS. Centrifuge at 300g for 10 minutes. Resuspend in fresh medium and plate immediately. Monocytes are adherent; allow 2-4 hours for attachment before washing non-adherent cells.
Post-thaw viability is typically ≥70%. Monocyte adhesion and phagocytic function recover well after thawing. Fresh cells are shipped with ≥90% viability. For differentiation assays, fresh monocytes are recommended.
Yes. Donor reservation and repeat-donor programs are available. Donor demographics, health status, and HLA typing (if available) can be provided on request.
