Results are values of mode fluorescence (with percentages of gated events in parentheses) based on 10,000 events. The mean value of mode fluorescence ± the standard deviation for controls without primary antibody was 4.03 ± 1.2 (range, 2.8 to 5.5).
+, fluorescence intensity above 1.9 × 101; −, fluorescence intensity below 1.9 × 101.
MAb originally defining Tf190 and used to affinity purify the molecule.
MAbs reacting with affinity-purified Tf190 by DIA.
Rabbit antiserum prepared against affinity-purified Tf190.
ND, not determined.
