“…In the case of CD4 mAb-APC from company 1, the total number of CD4 receptors was found to be 139,000 ± 3000. The number of CD4 receptors found for the two CD4 mAb-APC conjugates is within two standard deviations of the value 145,000 ± 9000 reported previously [9,10]. The difference in the values of the parameter [T0] between mAb labeled with FITC, about 114,000, and those labeled with APC, about 147,000, is significant and may point to problems with producing a "pure" solution of CD4 mAb-FITC conjugates due to the small size difference between CD4 mAb (150 kD) and CD4 mAb-FITC (150.4 kD).…”
