{"product_id":"biolegend-317419","title":"Biolegend, 317419, Alexa Fluor® 488 anti-human CD4 Antibody, 25tests","description":"\u003cp\u003eCD4, also known as T4, is a 55 kD single-chain type I transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on most thymocytes, a subset of T cells, and monocytes\/macrophages. CD4, a member of the Ig superfamily, recognizes antigens associated with MHC class II molecules and participates in cell-cell interactions, thymic differentiation, and signal transduction. CD4 acts as a primary receptor for HIV, binding to HIV gp120. CD4 has also been shown to interact with IL-16.\u003cbr\u003e\n25tests\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Human, Cynomolgus, Rhesus\u003cbr\u003e\nReported Reactivity: Chimpanzee\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Mouse\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Human peripheral T cells\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide and BSA (origin USA)\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and conjugated with Alexa Fluor® 488 under optimal conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: Lot-specific (to obtain lot-specific concentration and expiration, please enter the lot number in our Certificate of Analysis online tool.)\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C, and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication: FC - Quality testedIHC-F - Verified\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is 5 µl per million cells in 100 µl staining volume or 5 µl per 100 µl of whole blood. For immunohistochemical staining on frozen tissue sections, the suggested use of this reagent is 5.0 - 10 µg per ml. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.* Alexa Fluor® 488 has a maximum emission of 519 nm when it is excited at 488 nm.Alexa Fluor® and Pacific Blue™ are trademarks of Life Technologies Corporation.View full statement regarding label licenses\u003cbr\u003e\nExcitation Laser: Blue Laser (488 nm)\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication Notes: The OKT4 antibody binds to the D3 domain of CD4 and does not block HIV binding. Additional reported applications (for the relevant formats) include: immunohistochemistry of frozen sections and blocking of T cell activation. This clone was tested in-house and does not work on formalin fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue. The Ultra-LEAF™ purified antibody (Endotoxin \u0026lt; 0.01 EU\/µg, Azide-Free, 0.2 µm filtered) is recommended for functional assays (Cat. No. 317453 and 317454). In a small subset of individuals, the OKT4 clone does not bind to CD4 due to polymorphisms in CD4.9\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication References(PubMed link indicates BioLegend citation): Knapp W, et al. 1989.
