abstract：:This study describes an immunomagnetic bead-based methodology for optimal purification of mouse CD4+ T cells. It reproducibly yields highly pure CD4+ T cells from mouse lymph nodes (95-99%) and spleen (93-96%) with no residual antigen-presenting cell (APC) function in the purified population. The recovery of the start...
