Use the CD25 Nanobeads Kit, mouse (RUO), S or L Separation Column, and a magnetic separator to enrich or deplete CD25+ cells from C57 mouse spleen cells. Subsequently, perform fluorescent staining using PE Rat Anti-Mouse CD25 Antibody (S-R441) (SDT cat: S0B8011), and gate on the live cell population for analysis.

| Capacity |
50T (0.5 mL magnetic beads & 0.1 mL antibody): Suitable for 5 × 108Total cell count: up to 50 sorting runs can be performed. 100T (1 mL magnetic beads & 0.2 mL antibody): Suitable for 1 × 109Total cell count: up to 100 sorting runs can be performed. |
| Principle of Separation | First, the cells are stained with a mouse anti-CD25 antibody labeled with phycoerythrin (PE), and then the PE‑CD25‑labeled cells are magnetically labeled using Anti‑PE Nanobeads. After labeling is complete, the cell suspension is loaded into a separation column placed within the sorter's magnetic field. The magnetically labeled CD25‑positive cells are retained in the column, while the unlabeled cells flow through the column, constituting the negative fraction. Once the column is removed from the magnetic field, the CD25‑positive cells that were captured by the magnetic beads are eluted, yielding the positive fraction. |

Background
CD25, also known as the interleukin-2 receptor alpha chain (IL-2Rα), is expressed in the early stages of thymic T cell development (CD4-CD8-); peripheral resting conventional T cells exhibit low CD25 expression, while CD25 is upregulated upon activation of T and B cells, with relatively low expression on activated monocytes. When present alone, CD25 has low affinity for IL-2; however, when it forms a trimeric complex—IL-2Rαβγ—with the β chain (CD122) and the γ chain (CD132)—it creates a high-affinity IL-2 receptor complex that mediates IL-2 signaling.The CD4+CD25+ cell population includes Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Treg).
Protocol
Note: This kit does not include the sorting buffer; it must be provided separately. The corresponding Stater product number is S0D3018.

Magnetic Labeling |
1 |
Grind a small tissue sample containing CD25-positive cells on a 40 μm sterile filter to prepare a single-cell suspension. After red blood cell lysis, perform live cell counting. Note:It is recommended to count cells after staining with AO/PI. |

|
3 |
Resuspend every 1 × 10⁷ cells in 98 μL of buffer. Note:The volume of buffer should be adjusted proportionally according to the sample volume; (e.g., resuspend 2 × 10⁷ cells in 196 μL of sorting buffer). |
