Preparation And Storage: Preparation And Storage Store undiluted at 4°C. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. This preparation contains no preservatives, thus it should be handled under aseptic conditions.
Recommended Assay Procedures: Recommended Assay Procedures Enriched splenic T cells can be induced to express Fas Ligand by 6-8-hour culture with plate-bound anti-mouse CD3 mAb 17A2 (Cat. No. 555273), mAb 145-2C11 (Cat. No. 557306), or mAb 500A2 (Cat. No. 553238). Because Fas Ligand is expressed at low density on activated cells, it may be desirable to amplify staining by using a biotinylated second-step antibody with a "bright" third-step reagent, such as PE Streptavidin (Cat. No. 554061). The BD Biosciences anti-hamster IgG mAb cocktails, either biotin- or PE-conjugated (Cat. No. 554010 or 554056, respectively) are not effective for staining with mAb MFL3. Other reported applications include blocking of the cytotoxic activities of the mouse FasLigand-transfected L5178Y T lymphoma and influenza-specific CD8+ BALB/c CTL clones.
