Peter, If you have a B-D Pharmingen catalog you may have noticed that none of the Abs listed in the NHP section appear to be available as APC conjugates. If you look up the same clones in the human section, however, you will find that several clones are listed as APC conjugates. For example, the CD2 clone RPA-2.10, CD8 clone RPA-T8, CD20 clone 2H7, and CD69 clone FN50 all x-r with rhesus and are listed in the human section conjugated to APC. Also, the CD4 clone SK3 (rhesus x-r) has been listed in the (old) B-D Biosciences immunocytometry catalog as an APC conjugate (though for some reason it isn't in the current B-D Pharmingen). I don't know of any x-r CD28 or L-selectin clones that are available in APC-maybe someone else can help out there. Take a look at Keith Reiman's NHP reagent database for more crossreactivity information: http://rncc.bidmc.harvard.edu/labs/viral/Frameset_CD.html Best regards, Mandy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mandy Cromwell, PhD New England Regional Primate Research Center Harvard Medical School southborough, MA 01772 (508)624-8022 >I am currently setting up assays for measuring CD antigens on rhesus monkey >T-cells by 4-color flow cytometry.
