Expand your T cell research with confidence

The BD Horizon™ Human T Cell Backbone Panel consists of an optimized configuration of core markers specifically designed to expand your research with recommended fluorochrome drop-ins and enable flexibility in panel design without compromising resolution.

Fluorochromes were strategically selected so that up to five recommended drop-ins can be added with minimal impact to the backbone resolution and minimal panel design effort, allowing you to focus on marker selection.
