About this item

CD8+ cytotoxic T cells fulfill the role of regulating and/or carrying out the body’s immune response by eliminating intracellular pathogens such as viruses, and some bacteria and parasites. Upon recognition of an infected cell, the CD8+ T cell initiates apoptosis through the targeted release of effector proteins contained in granules within the T cell.
Storage: Either prepare cells for long term storage in liquid nitrogen vapor phase or thaw for use. Storage in liquid phase nitrogen is NOT recommended. Short term storage of cells (less than 2 weeks) at −80 °C is acceptable, but should be minimised to ensure maximum stability. Once thawed, samples must be used immediately.
