Human blood monocytes, but not other Ficoll-Hypaque cells, adhere to plastic surfaces from which confluent BHK cells have been removed. EDTA (3mM) rapidly and completely removes monocytes, providing a simple technique for preparation of human monocytes in suspension. The method should be valuable for studies of monocyte function where monocyte monolayers are not suitable.
