title: Isolation of CD3-, CD4-, CD8-, IL-2R+ thymocyte precursors by panning.
abstract: We present a panning method for isolation of thymocytes that are CD3-, CD4-, CD8- and IL-2R+. These cells have been isolated by positive selection on dishes coated with 7D4 antibody followed by treatment with biotinylated 145-2C11, GK1.5, and 53-6.7 antibodies and negative selection on avidin coated dishes.
