| Catalog # | C2446-01E |
| Applications | Suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry, Flow Cytometry, Inhibition of Cell Attchment and Immunoprecipitation. Other applications not tested. |
| Recommended Dilutions | Immunohistochemistry: On acetone-fixed frozen human epithelial tissues including tongue, foreskin and ovary. Not for use on formalin-fixed tissue. |
| Flow Cytometry: Stains human squamous cell carcinoma (SCC9), ovarian carcinoma (SKOV-3) and umbilical vein endothelium (HUVEC). Stains RKO or K562 cells transfected for CD104 expression. Does not stain monocytes, neutrophils, lymphocytes, T cells, B cells or platelets. |
| Inhibition of Cell Attachment: Inhibits SCC9 cell adhesion to human and EHS laminin and laminin GD-2 peptide, but not to type IV collagen or fibronectin. Does not inhibit SKOV-3 cell adhesion to laminin, fibronectin or type IV collagen. |
| Immunoprecipitation: Precipitates PAGE bands of 66, 76, 120, 135 and 200kD (reduced) or 66, 110, 125, 130 and 190kD (non-reduced) from surface-biotinylated SCC9 cells. |
| Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. |
| Storage and Stability | May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile 40-50% glycerol, aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. |
