themselves wrote about this confusion, so I'm still a bit skeptical. =

if I gated out aggregates and right in these aggregates were a higher =
percentage
of vital targets (i.e. not yet killed targets but targets adherent to =
effectors)
in comparison to the singlet cells (i.e. more already killed targets =
not anymore
adherent to effectors), well okay, I'm probably a bit too skeptical.

Yes, by using a marker mAb you should be able to clarify the =
situation.
Thank you very much for your reply.
