The CELLTRACKS Circulating Melanoma Cell Kit immunomagnetically captures CD146-positive cells from whole blood and enables the enumeration and characterization of circulating melanoma cells (CMCs).
After immunomagnetic capture and enrichment, fluorescent reagents are added for the identification and enumeration of CMCs. Anti- MEL-PE is specific for melanoma cells, anti-CD34-APC for endothelial cells, anti-CD45-APC for leukocytes and DAPI for cell nuclei.
Product is for research use only (RUO) – not for use in diagnostic procedures.
