CellSearch® CXC Control Cell Kit

* For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures. The performance characteristics and safety and effectiveness have not been established and are not cleared or approved by the FDA.
CellSearch® CXC Kit *

The CellSearch® CXC Kit enables the immunomagnetic selection of rare circulating epithelial cells (CTCs) from whole blood and the characterization of user-defined markers with low antigen density (~50,000 antigens/cell). The CellSearch® CXC Kit reagents include a cytokeratin-fluorescein/CD45-Allophycocyanin (APC) leaving the Phycoerythrin (PE) channel of the CellTracks Analyzer II® open to incorporate a user-defined PE-conjugate to further characterize the CTCs. This kit configuration allows the user the flexibility to study low-density markers of interest on CTCs.



CellSearch® CXC Control Cell Kits *
The CellSearch® CXC Control Cell Kit contains single-use bottles of fixed cells from a breast carcinoma cell line (SK-BR-3). A CellSearch® CXC Control Cell bottle is substituted for a patient sample to verify the performance of the CellSearch® CXC Kit reagents, sample processing by the CellTracks® AutoPrep® System, and cell analysis by the CellTracks Analyzer II®. The cells are a single level population and differentiated as control cells by the detection of fluorescence in the control channel of the CellTracks Analyzer II®.

Instrumentation Requirements for the CellSearch® CXC and CXC Control Cell Kits *
The CellTracks® Autoprep® System is used to standardize and optimize the sample preparation protocol for use with the CellSearch® CXC and CXC Control Cell Kits. Analysis and enumeration of CTCs and control cells are performed using the CellTracks Analyzer II® with Linux Operating System.
