Preparation and Storage
Store vials at 2°C–8°C. Conjugated forms should not be frozen. Protect from exposure to light. Each reagent is stable until the expiration date shown on the bottle label when stored as directed.
The CD79b antibody, clone SN8 (3A2-2E7-1F5), is generated from the hybridization of NS-1 mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with cell membrane preparations from B-prolymphocytic leukemia (B-PLL) cells. The CD79b antibody recognizes an epitope on the extracellular domain of a 36–40 kilodalton (kDa) type I membrane glycoprotein. Immunoglobulin (Ig) antigen receptors are composed of a non-covalently associated complex of Ig and two other proteins, Igα and Igβ, which have been designated as CD79a and CD79b, respectively.
