There are 4+ publications for this product available. The Mouse Monoclonal anti-CD16 antibody is suitable to detect CD16 in samples from Pig. It has been validated for FACS.
The FcG7 antibody reacts with CD16, the transmembrane α chain of Fcγ Receptor III (FcγRIIIAα). In the pig, FcγRIIIAα is expressed on NK cells, monocytes, granulocytes, and pulmonary alveolar macrophages. The FcG7 antibody induces redirected cytotoxic activity of NK cells and granulocytes against tumor cells. Two-color analysis of CD16 expression on pig peripheral blood lymphocytes. Pig whole blood was stained with PE-conjugated anti- pig CD4a mAb 74-12-4 (Cat. no. 559586, both panels) and biotinylated mAb FcG7 (Right panel), followed by Streptavidin- FITC (Cat. No. 554060, both panels). Erythrocytes were lysed (PharmLyse™ Lysing Buffer, Cat. no. 555899), non-viable leukocytes were excluded by staining with 7-AAD (Via- Probe™, Cat. No. 555816/555815), and lymphocytes were gated according to their light-scatter profiles. Flow cytometry was performed on a FACSCalibura .
This product contains Sodium azide: a POISONOUS AND HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE which should be handled by trained staff only.
Handling Advice
The antibody was conjugated with biotin under optimum conditions, and unreacted biotin was removed.
