  2. 2. Individualized leukapheresis of hematopoietic cells for cellular therapies

    Author : Anna Mårtensson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Leukapheresis; hematopoietic stem cell; CD34; monocyte; on-line sample; prediction;

    Abstract : Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells from blood (HSC) are collected by leukapheresis from patients after mobilization with G-CSF +/- chemotherapy to be used in autologous transplantation.
