More Information
Clone KUL01
Isotype Mouse (BALB/c) IgG1κ
Isotype Control Mouse IgG1-AF488 (15H6)
Specificity Chicken Monocyte/Macrophage
Description The monoclonal antibody KUL01 is useful in the study of the development, distribution, function, and ontogeny of the mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) of the chicken by exclusively recognizing the cells of the MPS. It identifies chicken monocytes and macrophages as well as interdigitating cells and activated microglia cells. This antibody does not react with B (Bu-1+) or T (CD3+) lymphocytes.
Immunogen Chicken peripheral blood mononuclear cell leukocytes
Conjugate AF488 (Alexa Fluor® 488)
Buffer Formulation Phosphate buffered saline containing < 0.1% sodium azide
Clonality Monoclonal
Concentration 0.5 mg/mL
Volume 0.2 mL
Recommended Storage 2-8°C; Avoid exposure to light
