Product Name:

Alexa Fluor® 700 anti-mouse CD4 Antibody

Catalog Number:

100536

Our lab studies the T cell populations in mice before and after an influenza infection. We are interested in how the different T cell populations change and therefore need a good CD4+ T cell marker. We chose this one because it is relatively dim and the CD4+ is very large.
