Hi Martha,

We use to have problems with CD8 counts due to FITC labeled mAbs. In 
comparison to PE labeled mAbs we always had at least 10% lower counts with 
FITC labeled antibodies. However we never found a wide range for healthy 
donos. Ours results were always between 25-32%. I am sorry if I did not 
help.

Good Luck,
Olindo

I would like to know if anybody has had any problems with low normal ranges 
for
CD-8 using the Epics XL and Coulter antibodies.  We have only run forty 
normals
and our ranges is 6.45 - 39.95.     Are there any suggestions on why this 
might
be so low?
