Hello all, I'm trying to stain and isolate a rare population (1-2%) in bone marrow with PE-conjugated abs. I succeeded to label the cell for FACS using the following protocol: 1x10^6 nucleated BM cells/100ul FACS buffer with 2 ul Ab (1:50 dilution). The cells showed intermediate fluorescence. My question is: if I would like to stain 100x10^6 cells should I extrapolate the volumes so I get 100x10^6 MNCs/10ml FACS buffer with 200ul Ab??? I thought of keeping the Ab dilution but to increase the cells amount, lets say 100x10^6 cells in 1ml not 10ml, and in this case use 20ul of the Ab instead of 200ul. Please your advice.
