cells were isolated by using CD1a MicroBeads and stained with CD1a-FITC.

dendritic cells were isolated using the CD1a MicroBeads, an MS Column, and a MiniMACS™ Separator.
Cells were fluorescently stained with CD1a-FITC and analyzed by flow cytometry. Cell debris and dead cells were excluded from the analysis based on scatter signals and propidium iodide fluorescence.

Detailed product information

Background information

The CD1a antigen is a member of the CD1 family of proteins, which are structurally related to MHC class I proteins and mediate the presentation of non-peptide antigens to T cells.
1

Applications

CD1a MicroBeads were used, for example, for the isolation of Langerhans cells from epidermis
2
or for isolation of hematopoietic progenitor cell-derived dendritic cells.
3

Columns

For positive selection: MS, LS, XS, or autoMACS® Columns. Large Cell Columns are recommended for the isolation of Langerhans cells from skin.
