<excerpt> I have a investigator using Celector Flasks for CD-34 enric=
hment.<nl>
After following the protocol, the cells are stained for CD 34 and run on <nl>
the FACScan. To date we have not seen any staining greater than background.<n=

<excerpt> Question? Is it possible that the antibody on the flask is =
<nl>
remaining on the cells and blocking any subsequent staining?<nl>
We would like to develop the cells with a second step <nl>=

reagent, but to what? Is the anti-CD 34 a mouse? rat? rabbit etc?<nl>
There has been no response from the company to date.<nl>
</excerpt><nl>
Have not used the CD34 AIS flasks but we use the CD4 and CD8 flasks. After al=
lowing the cells to spontaneously detach from the flasks (usually about 48 H) =
the cells are certainly still CD4 or CD8 positive. How are you removing the c=
ells? The company will not give you any info about the flasks because the co=
ating process is a proprietary secret...<nl>
