Unfortunately, I didn't find any of these antibodies and I've been
searching for 2-3 months. I ended up in using CD16, but it can also
stain T-cell subsets, so it's not 100% specific to NK cells only. From
what I understood of the Moretta paper, these were custom or home-made
antibodies.

If anyone has any info on these antibodies being commercially available,
I would be interested in knowing it too.

Thanks,
