Seahorse XF Hu T Cell Activation Assay Kit
Agilent Seahorse XF Hu T Cell Activation Assay Kit measures human (Hu) T cell activation response within several minutes of stimulation using Seahorse XF Analyzers. This is accomplished via measuring proton efflux rates (PER) associated with glycolytic pathway-dependent energy production, and is built on the principle that T cell activation is accompanied by a rapid switch in cellular energy production and intermediate demand…
The kit contains Agilent-validated ImmunoCult Human CD3/CD28 T Cell Activator and 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) and is an optimal solution delivered by Agilent and STEMCELL Technologies partnership for interrogating and modulating T cell activation on the Seahorse XF platform. The ImmunoCult Human CD3/CD28 T Cell Activator from STEMCELL Technologies is a soluble tetrameric complex. It is easy-to-use and compatible with specially designed injection ports on Agilent Seahorse XF cartridges, reducing assay preparation time and improving assay reliability. Together with standardized protocols and cloud-based Agilent Seahorse Analytics software, the XF Hu T Cell Activation Assay Kit provides a robust measure of T cell activation with new insights.
Features
