Description
BD Trucount™ Controls are designed for use with BD Trucount™ Tubes and a suitably equipped flow cytometer as a control for certain elements of the absolute counting process. Specifically, a control bead value that is outside the expected range could indicate an error in pipetting or a problem with the value from the BD Trucount™ beads. BD Trucount™ Controls are not intended as a substitute for a cellular control.
Preparation And Storage
Store at 2–8 °C. Reagent in opened or unopened vials is stable until the expiration date shown on the vial label. Do not use after this expiration date.
