Description

The IM7 monoclonal antibody reacts with all isoforms of mouse CD44 (Pgp-1). CD44 is expressed by hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells. Bone marrow myeloid cells and memory T cells highly express this antigen and peripheral B and T cells can upregulate the expression of CD44. CD44 functions as an adhesion molecule through its binding to hyaluronate, an extracellular matrix component.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. This IM7 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested

This IM7 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes using eFluor^TM NC Flow Cytometry Staining Buffer (cat. 00-3222). This can be used at 5 μl per million cells in a 100 μl total staining volume.
The isotype control eFluor^TM 605^NC rat IgG2b (cat. 93-4031) should be used at 5μl/test.

Laser/Filter Recommendation: When using eFluor^TM 605^NC, we recommend excitation with the 405nm violet laser with an appropriate filter set, such as the 595LP dichroic mirror with the 605/40 bandpass filter. An acceptable alternative is the 610/20 bandpass filter. Please contact eBioscience Technical Support for more information.

Buffer Recommendation: Comparison of eFluor^TM Nanocrystal conjugated antibody staining in different buffers has demonstrated that optimal performance is seen with the eFluor^TM NC Flow Cytometry Staining Buffer (cat. 00-3222). For a comparison of staining with different buffers, click here.

Whole Blood Recommendation: If staining whole blood samples, collection into heparin or sodium citrate-containing tubes is recommended. If EDTA is being used as an anti-coagulant, lysis of RBCs with eBioscience 1X RBC Lysis Buffer (cat. 00-4333) before staining is required.
