Oops! I misspoke in my message re: the best markers to identify monocytes in mouse blood. I still stand by CD11b and Gr-1 as the best markers to resolve monocytes from granulocytes. As you will see from the histograms illustrated in the attached word document, both monocytes and granulocytes express CD11b and Gr-1. However, granulocytes express high levels of Gr-1 while monocytes express low levels of Gr-1 [I had previously said that only granulocytes express Gr-1, my mistake]. I used color eventing to show the profiles of these two populations. Sorry for the mistake! Julie Oughton Oregon State University <<CD11b Gr-1.doc>>
