CD49b Antibody (FITC)

Aliquot and store in the dark at 2C to 8C. Avoid exposure to light.

The monoclonal antibody is directed against the CD49b- antigen (GP Ia or VLA-2 alpha-chain), which can form distinct complexes with either the CD29-antigen (GP IIa or VLA beta-chain), resulting in the VLA-2 (alpha-2 beta- 1) complex, which is expressed on human platelets. The monoclonal antibody reacts with platelets, long-term cultivated T lymphocytes and activated T lymphocytes. In immunohistology the monoclonal antibody reacts with thymocytes, epithelial cells of a variety of tissues, peripheral nerves, fibroblasts, osteoclasts, glomerular mesangium and most non-haemopoietic adherent cell lines.

The reagent is provided in aqueous buffered solution containing protein stabilizer, and <=0.09% sodium Azide
