The correlation between surface phenotype and function in subpopulations of murine thymocytes has been investigated using flow microfluorometry (FMF). C57BL/6 thymocytes stained with monoclonal antibodies directed against Lyt-2, H-2K(b), and Thy-l.2 and passed on an FACS II flow cytometer could be resolved into at least four distinct subpopulations on the basis of fluorescence and forward light...
