Description: This phenotyping panel was developed to measure the relative frequencies of multiple leukocyte cell subsets in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from African infants and children, including the expression of immune activation and differentiation markers. It was optimized with the objective of obtaining the maximum information concerning the immune status and cell subsets that could influence the immune response to vaccines and infectious diseases using small volumes of pediatric samples. It was developed using cryopreserved PBMC from healthy HIV-uninfected and HIV-infected US adults, but it has also been tested with cryopreserved PBMC from US infants. Although we have not tested the panel on whole blood, it is likely that the panel could be used with whole blood following minimal optimization.
