| Description |
| CD22 MicroBeads were developed for magnetic isolation of human B cells. In peripheral blood, cell surface expression of the CD22 antigen is found on mature B cells, but it is lost during terminal differentiation to plasma cells. In bone marrow, surface expression of CD22 can be detected from the pre-B cell stage on. Cytoplasmic expression of CD22 can also be found in late pro-B cells and early pre-B cells. |
| Applications |
| CD22 MicroBeads can be used for positive selection or depletion of human B cells from PBMCs2, bone marrow3, or single-cell suspensions from lymphoid tissues1. The purified B cells may be used for cell biological studies, e.g., on signal transduction2, mixed lymphocyte responses1, antigen presentation, or for molecular studies, such as PCR analysis3. |
