Description

BD FACSCount™ CD4 reagents are used to enumerate the absolute counts of CD4 T lymphocytes and determine the percentage of lymphocytes that are CD4 T lymphocytes in unlysed whole blood (CD4 counts and CD4 percentages). The reagents are intended for in vitro diagnostic use on a BD FACSCount™ instrument.

Contents: CD4 PE / CD14 PE-Cy™5 / CD15-PE-Cy5, fluorescent nuclear dye, and reference beads; reagent tube caps; fixative solution.

Preparation And Storage

The reagent is stable until the expiration date shown on the label when stored at 2°C to 8°C. Do not use after the expiration date. Do not freeze the reagent or expose it to direct light during storage or incubation with cells. Keep the outside of the reagent vial dry.

Do not use the reagent if you observe any change in appearance. Precipitation or discoloration indicates instability or deterioration.
