Zebrafish is a useful model to study vertebrate hematopoiesis, but lack of antibodies to zebrafish proteins has limited purification of hematopoietic cells. Here, we purified neutrophils from larval and adult zebrafish using the lectin Phaseolus vulgaris erythroagglutinin (PHA‐E) and DRAQ5, a DNA‐staining fluorescent dye. In adult kidney marrow, we purified neutrophil‐like PHA‐E4lowDRAQ5lowcells, which neutrophil‐type granules. Specifically, at 96‐hr post‐fertilization, we sorted large‐sized cells from larvae using forward scatter and found that they consisted of PHA‐ElowDRAQ5lowpopulations. These cells had myeloperoxidase activity, were Sudan Black B‐positive and expressed high levels of neutrophil‐specific (csf3randmpx) mRNAs, all neutrophil characteristics. Using this method, we conducted functional analysis suggesting that zyxin (Zyx) plays a role in neutrophil generation in zebrafish larvae. Overall, PHA‐E and DRAQ5‐based flow cytometry serves as a tool to purify zebrafish neutrophils.
