Invitrogen™ CD24 Monoclonal Antibody (M1/69), Alexa Fluor™ 532, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Rat Monoclonal Antibody

Description: The M1/69 monoclonal antibody reacts with the mouse CD24 molecule, also known as Heat Stable Antigen (HSA). This 35-50 kDa molecule is anchored in the plasma membrane via phosphatidylinositol and is expressed by erythrocytes, thymocytes, peripheral lymphocytes and myeloid lineage. CD24 is a variably glycosylated molecule resulting in heterogeneity of molecular mass of this antigen on cells of different lineages and antibodies to CD24 exhibit subtle differences in staining level on lymphocyte populations. The expression of CD24 has been used to resolve stages of B lymphopoiesis in mouse bone marrow. It has been reported that P-selectin (CD62P) binds to CD24. Applications Reported: This M1/69 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This M1/69 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes. This may be used at less than or equal to 0.25 μg per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. Alexa Fluor 532 is excited with the Green laser (532 nm) and emits at 561 nm. This cannot be used with the Yellow-Green laser (561 nm). We recommend using a 560/14 band pass filter.
