Product Specification


Format

1 mL Mouse Naïve CD8 T Cell Biotin-Antibody Cocktail

2mL Streptavidin Beads

Capacity

Suitable for a total cell count of 1×10⁹, and can perform up to 100 sorting runs.

Principle of Separation

In this negative selection process, non- is labeled with a biotin-conjugated antibody.Naïve CD8 TCells are then incubated with streptavidin‑coated nanomagnetic beads; non‑target cells are labeled via antibody‑bead complexes, while the target…Naïve CD8 TThe cells remain unlabeled. The cell suspension is then transferred to a polystyrene tube and placed within the sorter's magnetic field. Under the influence of the magnetic field, the magnetically labeled non-target cells adhere to the tube wall, while the unlabeledNaïve CD8 TThe cells remain in the supernatant. This supernatant is, therefore, the solution from which non-target cells have been removed.Naïve CD8 TCell-enriched fraction.

Background

Mouse naïve CD8 T cells are cytotoxic T cells that have matured in the thymus but have not yet encountered specific antigens; they remain in a quiescent state. These cells primarily reside in peripheral lymph nodes and the spleen, where they rely on IL-7 signaling to maintain homeostatic survival. Upon activation by exogenous antigens and costimulatory signals, they undergo extensive clonal expansion and differentiate into effector CD8⁺ T cells (CTLs) with direct cytotoxic activity and long-lived memory CD8⁺ T cells. They serve as the pivotal initiating cells of the organism's adaptive immune responses against viruses and tumors. Using negative magnetic bead sorting to isolate and purify naïve CD8⁺ T cells from mouse splenic cell suspensions yields a purity of over 90%. The sorted cells bear no surface antibody labeling and retain their natural quiescent state, making them suitable for subsequent in vitro activation, differentiation, and functional studies.

Steps

Operating Instructions

Dosage and Time

1

Collect the mouse spleen, grind it on a 40 μm sterile filter to prepare a single-cell suspension of splenic cells, and perform cell counting;

Note:It is recommended to count cells after staining with AO/PI; splenic cells can be centrifuged at 400 g for 7 minutes;

Prepare the sample

2

Resuspend 1×10 in 100 μL of MagSep Separation Buffer7cells;

Note:Adjust reagents proportionally according to the sample volume; set aside a pre-sorting sample to measure the initial naïve CD8 ratio;

1×107cells/100 μL

3

Add 10 μL of Mouse Naïve CD8 T cell Biotin Antibody Cocktail to the sample and gently mix.

Note:For this step, gently pipette up and down 2–3 times to mix thoroughly;

10 μL / 100 μL

4

Incubate the antibodies in the cocktail with the cells at room temperature for 10 minutes;

Incubate at room temperature for 10 minutes

5

Shake for 5–30 seconds to mix the Streptavidin beads evenly;

Mix by shaking for 5–30 seconds

6

Add 20 μL of Streptavidin beads to the sample;

20 μL/100 μL

7

Gently mix the magnetic beads and cells, and incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes;

Note:For this step, you can use a pipette to gently blow the mixture 2–3 times to mix it evenly;

During this step, the magnetic beads may settle at the bottom; you can gently tap the tube to remix them around the 2.5-minute mark;

Incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes

8

Add MagSep Separation Buffer to the sample and immediately place it on the magnetic stand to prevent the magnetic beads from settling heavily at the bottom;

Add the total volume to 2.5 mL (in a 5 mL flow cytometry tube)

Add the total volume to 7.5 mL (in a 15 mL centrifuge tube)

9

Place the sample on the magnetic stand so that the magnetic beads adhere to the tube wall;

Adsorb using a single-well magnetic stand (3 min)

Adsorb using a multi-well magnetic stand (5 min)

10

Tilt the magnetic stand and pour the sample into a new collection tube to collect the sample;

Note: The sorted cells can be centrifuged at 400g for 7 minutes for subsequent culture and analysis.

Cell sorting successful

Note:1. 0.1-1 × 108cells (0.1-1 mL) are recommended to use a 5 mL single-well magnetic separator (Starter EasyIso Separator) with a total volume of 2.5 mL;

2-5 × 108For cells (2–5 mL), it is recommended to use a 15 mL magnetic rack (Starter EasyEights EasyIso Separator) with a total adsorption volume of 7.5 mL.

2. If the sample viability is low, it is recommended to use a dead cell removal kit to eliminate dead cells (Dead Cell Removal Set, (RUO)#S0K0009).

Validation Data

Naïve CD8 T cells were enriched from mouse splenocytes using a column-free Naïve CD8 T cell isolation kit. Cells were stained with the following fluorescent antibodies: CD8-Pacific Blue (SDT Cat: S0B8086), CD44-FITC (SDT Cat: S0B5452), and CD62L-Alexa Fluor® 647 (SDT Cat: S0B1699). Gating was performed on live cells (Live+), and the proportion of Naïve CD8 T cells (CD8+CD44-CD62L+) in the sorted fraction was determined. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that the purity of the isolated Naïve CD8 T cells was 96.1%.
