Carol Oxford told me the other day that she had heard that about 2.7
percent of Macaques have T cells that do not stain with the Biosource CD3
antibody. This seems to be the case I just came across one, CD2 worked fine
but the CD3 was very dim indeed. Such monkeys should probably be sold to
the circus and not used for experiments involving T cells.
