CD4 Molecule (CD4) antibody (FITC)

Antigen: CD4 Molecule (CD4)

Synonyms: CD4, MGC165891, cd4, CD4mut, L3T4, Ly-4, p55, W3/25

Clonality: Monoclonal (CT-4)

Host: Mouse

Reactivity: Chicken, Bird (Avian)

Conjugate: FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Catalog no.: ABIN135509

Additional Information

Alternative name: CD4

Isotype: IgG1

Clone: CT-4

Description: Chicken CD4 (Mr 64 kDa) CD4 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on approximately 70% of thymocytes, 10% of spleen cells and 45% of peripheral blood lymphocytes, but <1% of bursal cells.1 The monoclonal antibody CT-4 inhibits both PHA- and Con A-induced proliferative responses of splenocytes, and PWM-induced IL-2 production.1 This antibody also reacts with turkey CD4 as demonstrated by flow cytometry and immunoprecipitation/western blotting.

Application Details

Application Notes: WORKING DILUTIONS Flow Cytometry:Fluorescein (1 ug/10^6 cells), Biotin (1 ug/10^6 cells), R-phycoerythrin (0.2 ug/10^6 cells). Since applications vary, you should determine the optimum working dilution of the product that is appropriate for your specific need.

Storage: The purified (UNLB) antibody is supplied as 0.5 mg of purified immunoglobulin in 1.0 mL of 100 mM borate buffered saline, pH 8.0. No preservatives or amine-containing buffer salts added. Store at 2-8C. The fluorescein (FITC) conjugate is supplied as 0.5 mg in 1.0 mL of PBS/NaN3. Store at 2-8C. The biotin (BIOT) conjugate is supplied as 0.5 mg in 1.0 mL of PBS/NaN3. Store at 2-8C. The R-phycoerythrin (R-PE) conjugate is supplied as 0.1 mg in 1.0 mL of PBS/NaN3 and a stabilizing agent. Store at 2-8C. Do not freeze! Protect conjugated forms from light. Each reagent is stable for the period shown on the bottle label if stored as directed. WARNING Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.
