The immune system consists of many different cell types, whose functions and interactions govern the immune response. In research, the specific composition of cell surface antigens is exploited to accurately define the different cell types.

Immunophenotyping by flow cytometry has become the most commonly used method to identify, quantify and isolate immune cells within mixed populations. However, selecting which antigens are best to identify a specific cell type can be challenging due to the vast number of research articles.

To help on this quest, we have carefully reviewed and cross-referenced research articles focused on the study of human and mouse immune cells and compiled the most commonly used markers to identify each of the different cell types in the immune system. With this 84 page guide you can easily build your own immunophenotyping and dedicate more of your time to research.
