I am looking for specific markers for macrophages for flow cytometry analysis
Thanks John, that's helpful.
If you would like to differentiate macrophages from monocytes, I would suggest to use CD68.
but be careful. Despite it is a "surface marker", you need to permeabilize the cells for staining because of large intracellular pools.
In order to differentiate between M1 and M2 macs, you might have a look at our publication:
