      Product Notices

      1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
      2. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
      3. 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.
      4. Sodium azide is a reversible inhibitor of oxidative metabolism; therefore, antibody preparations containing this preservative agent must not be used in cell cultures nor injected into animals. Sodium azide may be removed by washing stained cells or plate-bound antibody or dialyzing soluble antibody in sodium azide-free buffer. Since endotoxin may also affect the results of functional studies, we recommend the NA/LE (No Azide/Low Endotoxin) antibody format, if available, for in vitro and in vivo use.

      3C4(mIC2/4)

      The 3C4 (mIC2/4) monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the mouse ICAM-2 (CD102) cell surface glycoprotein, a ligand for LFA-1. CD102 is constitutively expressed on endothelial cells, T and B lymphocytes, and alveolar walls. It is also expressed on a variety of leukocyte cell lines. CD102 does not appear to be involved in the development of hematopoietic cells. In a model for allergic asthma, endothelial CD102 mediates the transmigration of eosinophils (but not lymphocytes, monocytes, or macrophages) into the airway lumen. The 3C4 (mIC2/4) antibody blocks interactions between ICAM-2 and LFA-1.

      This antibody is routinely tested by flow cytometric analysis. Other applications were tested at BD Biosciences Pharmingen during antibody development only or reported in the literature.

      Purified
      Tissue culture supernatant is purified by either protein A/G or affinity purification methods. Both methods yield antibody in solution that is free of most other soluble proteins, lipids, etc. This format provides pure antibody that is suitable for a number of downstream applications including: secondary labeling for flow cytometry or microscopy, ELISA, Western blot, etc.
