surface markers CD4, CD8, CD19, CD11b, and Ly6G, and assayed

As the studied chemical reactions occur very rapidly — in less than a second — and the ALS technique can take about 20 minutes to scan a single spot on a particle, the researchers
used a layer of chemically active molecules, which were attached to the
surface of the particle, as
markers for the catalytic reactivity.
Positive clones were then differentiated
using defined serum - free conditions outlined in Ng, et al [7], which overall gave rise to a CD45 + CD56 + CD117 − CD94 + population of cytotoxic NK cells [8] expressing the CD4 construct and other
surface markers in a similar manner to peripheral blood NK cells.

surface of untreated or treated ePTFE tubings was calculated by calculating the percent area covered by CD41 (platelets
marker)
using binary image processing on Zeiss LSM Image Examiner software.

surface proteoglycan characteristic of primate ES cells and CD9 respectively, to fractionate human ES cell populations into four compartments according to their relative levels of expression of both
markers [14].

use medium tip
marker pen — not the large ones — and
use silver and black, which was what we

surfaces.
For a long time I
used black ink on paper, then I discovered coloured
markers and that opened up the process because then I could start drawing with colour as a means to create composition and think about how shapes and colours interact on the initial drawing
surface.
