Successful isolation of monocytes was confirmed with flow cytometry (BD Fortessa) using VivaFix Viability Assay (BioRad), a cocktail of antibodies from BioLegend: anti-CD3 PE (300456), anti-CD14 BV650 (301835), anti-CD19 PerCP-Cy5.5 (302229), and anti-CD56 APC (318309)
Additionally, the assay may produce misleading results when applied to products rich in organic acids, particularly citric acid, due to potential interferences (Corral-Aguayo et al., 2008)
