Product Name:

CD4 Monoclonal Antibody (RM4-5), Super Bright 436

Catalog Number:

62-0042-82

Clone Number:

(RM4-5)

We are an immunology lab that looks at immune responses in the context of inflammation and cancer. This marker is used to widely used to identify CD4 T cells in flow cytometry experiments.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Flow Cytometry

Sample

Murine Splenocytes (Naive and Infected)

Primary Incubation

Multiple Dilutions (1:250, 500, 1000)

Blocking Agent

FC Block 100ng/mL in FACS solution (surface)

Secondary Incubation

None

Tertiary Incubation

None

Detection

Cytek Aurora (BVR)

Results Summary

Splenic CD4 T cells are strongly and specifically labelled to identify the population with CD4 SuperBright 436 even during an infection comparable to naive. This color is specially nice since it's unique for the Aurora to allow more options.

Summary

The Good

Reliable results as easy to idenitify CD4+ T cells from other spenic cells.

The Bad

None

The Bottom Line

I would recommend this antibody to anyone studying T cells. It gives a strong, consistent labeling of CD4 T cells for flow cytometry.
