Preparation And Storage
Store vials at 2°C to 8°C. Conjugated forms should not be frozen and should be protected from exposure to light. Each reagent is stable for the period shown on the bottle label when stored as directed.
The CD2 antibody, clone S5.2, is derived from the hybridization of Sp2/0 mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells isolated from BALB/c mice immunized with T lymphocytes activated by mixed lymphocyte culture. The CD2 antibody recognizes a human lymphocyte antigen, 45 to 50 kilodaltons (kDa), which also forms the binding site for sheep erythrocytes.
