PE Mouse Anti-Human CD11a

Consider BD Horizon RealYellow™ 586 (RY586) Reagents, a bright and clean fluorochrome alternative to PE off the yellow-green laser. RY586 can be used alongside PE on spectral cytometers. More Info

BD Pharmingen™ PE Mouse Anti-Human CD11a

Name: PE Mouse Anti-Human CD11a
Brand: BD Pharmingen™
SKU: 555380

Clone G43-25B

(RUO)

Flow cytometric analysis of CD11a expression on human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Human whole blood was stained with either PE Mouse Anti-Human CD11a (Cat. No. 555380; solid line histogram) or PE Mouse IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 555574; dashed line histogram). Erythrocytes were lysed with BD Pharm Lyse™ Lysing Buffer (Cat No. 555899). Fluorescent histograms were derived from gated events with the side and forward light-scattering characteristics of intact lymphocytes. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACScan™ system.

Product Details

Brand: BD Pharmingen™

Alternative Name: LFA-1α; LFA-1A; LFA1A; Integrin alpha-L; ITGAL

Reactivity: Human (QC Testing)

Isotype: Mouse IgG2a, κ

Application: Flow cytometry (Routinely Tested)

Vol. Per Test: 20 µl

RRID: AB_395781

Storage Buffer: Aqueous buffered solution containing BSA and ≤0.09% sodium azide.

Regulatory Status: RUO

Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed.

Product Notices

This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.

Antibody Details

G43-25B

The G43-25B monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD11a. CD11a is the 180 kD integrin α chain which associates with CD18 (integrin β2) to form the heterodimer glycoprotein CD11a/CD18. This is known as the lymphocyte function associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), which is on all leukocytes; and is an adhesion molecule involved in lymphocyte and granulocyte functions. LFA-1 mediates adhesion of lymphoid cells to the vascular endothelium in association with its ligand, the intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), CD54. Other ligands are ICAM-2 (CD102) and ICAM-3 (CD50).

Format Details

R-Phycoerythrin (PE), is part of the BD family of Phycobiliprotein dyes. This fluorochrome is a multimeric fluorescent phycobiliprotein with excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 496 nm and 566 nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 576 nm. PE is designed to be excited by the Blue (488 nm), Green (532 nm) and Yellow-Green (561 nm) lasers and detected using an optical filter centered near 575 nm (e.g., a 575/26-nm bandpass filter). As PE is excited by multiple lasers, this can result in cross-laser excitation and fluorescence spillover on instruments with various combinations of Blue, Green, and Yellow-Green lasers. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
