Post-cryopreservation recovery and viability of PBMC isolated by the Ficoll and CPT methods. a The mean percent recovery after cryopreservation of PBMC collected using the Ficoll and CPT protocols. Percent recovery was calculated by dividing the number of PBMC recovered after thawing by the number of cells that were cryopreserved. b The mean viability of recovered PBMC isolated by the Ficoll and CPT technique. No significant differences (P < 0.05) in percent recovery or viability between the two protocols were observed. Error bars represent standard error of the mean
