Product Details

Product Specification


Format

Dextran-coated iron tetroxide nanomagnetic beads coupled with an anti-human CD4 monoclonal antibody

Capacity

2 mL magnetic beads: suitable for a total cell count of 1×10⁹, and can perform up to 100 separations

1 mL magnetic beads: suitable for 5×108total cells, and can perform up to 50 separations

Principle of Separation

CD4⁺ cells are magnetically labeled using CD4 Nanobeads for humans. The cell suspension is then loaded into a separation column placed within the sorter's magnetic field. The magnetically labeled CD4⁺ cells remain retained in the column, while the unlabeled cells flow through; this fraction constitutes the negative fraction after removal of CD4⁺ cells. After removing the separation column from the magnetic field, the magnetically captured CD4⁺ cells can be eluted, yielding the positive sorted fraction. If higher purity is required, the positive sorted fraction containing CD4⁺ cells must be further separated using a second column.

Stability & Storage

Store protected from light at 2–8°C; do not freeze.

Background

CD4 NanoBeads are designed to isolate human cells based on the expression of the CD4 antigen. CD4 is a 55 kDa protein that is highly expressed on helper T cells in the thymus and peripheral blood. In helper T cells, CD4 functions as a co-molecule, assisting the TCR heterodimer in recognizing MHC class II–peptide complexes. CD4 is also expressed on monocytes and dendritic cells, though at lower levels than in CD4+ helper T cells. When bound to certain chemokine receptors, CD4 serves as the primary high-affinity receptor for HIV.

Protocol

Note: This kit does not include the sorting buffer; it must be provided separately. The corresponding Stater catalog number isS0D3018

2

Centrifuge the cell suspension at 400×g for 7 minutes, and completely discard the supernatant

400×g, 7 min

3

Resuspend every 1×10⁷ cells in 80 μL of buffer

Note:Adjust the volume of the buffer proportionally according to the sample volume

Resuspend the cells

4

Add 20 μL of CD4 NanoBeads per 1×10⁷ cells

Note:When the cell quantity increases, increase the volume of all reagents proportionally

Add 20 μL per 1×10⁷ cells

5

Mix thoroughly and incubate in the dark at 2–8℃ for 15 minutes

Incubate for 15 minutes

6

Wash every 1×10⁷ cells with 1 mL of buffer, centrifuge at 400×g for 7 minutes, and completely discard the supernatant.

Add 1 mL to 1×10⁷ cells

Magnetic separation

8

Place the S-type separation column into the magnetic field of the corresponding magnetic separator, and rinse the column with 500 μL of buffer.

Rinse the separation column

9

Load the cell suspension onto the separation column and collect the effluent (unlabeled cells).

10

Wash the column three times with 500 μL of buffer each time, adding the next wash only after the liquid inside the column has completely drained.

3 × 500 μL of buffer

11

Combine all effluents into the negative fraction; remove the separation column from the magnetic field and place it over the collection tube.

—

12

Add 1 mL of buffer to the column, and quickly and firmly push the accompanying plunger to elute the magnetically labeled positive cells.

Note:For higher purity, use a new column and repeat the separation once.

Collect the target cells.
