Hi Tom, you can tried to set density plots with FSC vs FL or SSC vs FL. Some time it will help to discriminate. Also, you can change your isotype control antibody. There is some very bad isotype control availble in the market, they have strong Fc affinity. As a third resource, you can use an amplification of signal approach by using biotinilated antibodies. Recently it was widely discuss in this board about using several layers of biotinilated reagents. Good luck and regards, Rafael >Hi all, does anyone know of a general reference that deals with >unresolved populations? ie, cells with low levels of antigen on >the cell surface so they are not resolved from staining controls. >tia td > >-- >============================================================================== > Thomas M.
