Protocol: FLOW CYTOMETRY ANALYSIS: Method: 1. Prepare a cell suspension in media A. For cell preparations, deplete the red blood cellpopulation with Lympholyte®-M cell separation medium. 2. Wash 2 times. 3. Resuspend the cells to a concentration of 2x10e7 cells/ml in media A. Add 50 µl of thissuspension to each tube (each tube will then contain 1x10e6 cells, representing 1 test). 4. To each tube, add 0. 5-1. 0 µg* of this Ab per 10e6 cells. 5. Vortex the tubes to ensure thorough mixing of antibody and cells. 6. Incubate the tubes for 30 minutes at 4°C. (It is recommended that the tubes areprotected from light since most fluorochromes are light sensitive). 7. Wash 2 times at 4°C. 8. Resuspend the cell pellet in 50 µl ice cold media B. 9. Transfer to suitable tubes for flow cytometric analysis containing 15 µl of propidiumiodide at 0. 5 mg/ml in PBS. This stains dead cells by intercalating in DNA. Media: A. Phosphate buffered saline (pH 7. 2) + 5% normal serum of host species + sodium azide(100 µl of 2M sodium azide in 100 mls). B. Phosphate buffered saline (pH 7. 2) + 0. 5% Bovine serum albumin + sodium azide (100µl of 2M sodium azide in 100 mls).

Target Details for L-Selectin

Target: L-Selectin (SELL) (Selectin L (SELL))

Alternative Name: CD62L / L-Selectin

Target Type: Chemical

Background: L-selectin is expressed on most T and B lymphocytes, neutrophils, monocytes, eosinophils.1 Pre-incubation of lymphocytes with this antibody completely and specifically blocks binding of lymphocytes to high endothelial venules (HEV) in vitro 2,3,6 and the migration of lymphocytes to lymph nodes in vivo.2,3 Polymorphonuclear cells preincubated with this antibody do not migrate to the inflammatory foci.Synonyms: CD62 antigen-like family member L, LAM-1, LECAM1, LNHR, LYAM1, Leu-8, Leukocyte adhesion molecule 1, Leukocyte surface antigen Leu-8, Leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1, Lymph node homing receptor, SELL, TQ1, gp90-MEL
