Company:

Tonbo Biosciences

Product Name:

CFSE

Catalog Number:

13-0850-U500

As a T cell biology lab focusing on translational cell-based therapeutics, we use 1uM CFSE to label primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells to observe immune cell proliferation during 14 days of culture by flow cytometry. Tonobo Bioscience's CFSE reagent works great and is a fraction of the price of other companies.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

Flow Cytometry

Starting Material

Primary Human PBMC

Protocol Overview

Stained with 1uM CFSE using Tonbo's data sheet instructions.

Tips

Make sure you wash well, and start with a lower concentration of CFSE as it is very bright.

Results Summary

T cells were easily identifiable by the CFSE stain and we were able to clearly see proliferation during culture with corresponds to a decrease in CFSE MFI by flow cytometry.

Summary

The Good

Works well and is a fraction of the price. Easily used in multi-color flow cytometry

The Bad

None!

The Bottom Line

I will continue to use Tonbo's reagents as they work just as well as other bigger name companies, but are more economically priced.
