Description
The H57-597 monoclonal antibody reacts with the β chain of mouse TCR. TCRβ is expressed by thymocytes in a developmentally regulated manner and a majority of peripheral T cells. Crosslinking of the TCR complex with H57-597 induces activation and proliferation of T cells or apoptosis based on assay conditions. H57-597 is used as a phenotypic marker for TCR β expressing T cells.
Applications Reported
For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The H57-597 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.
Applications Tested
The H57-597 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse thymocyte and splenocyte suspensions. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.5 μg per million cells in a 100 μl total staining volume. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
