Comparison of NET quantification methods based on immunofluorescence microscopy: Hand-counting, semi-automated and automated evaluations
Formation of neutrophil extracellular traps was first described in 2004, showing that NETs are composed of decondensed chromatin fibers and nuclear and granule components. Free DNA is often used to quantify NETs, but to differentiate NETosis from necrotic DNA-release, immunofluorescence microscopy w...
