FITC Rat Anti-Mouse CD41
FITC Rat Anti-Mouse CD41
Flow cytometric analysis of CD41 expression on mouse platelets.  Mouse platelets were stained with either FITC  Rat IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 553924; dashed line histogram) or FITC Rat Anti-Mouse CD41 antibody (Cat. No. 561849/553848; solid line histogram). The fluorescence histograms were derived from events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of platelets.

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 FITC under optimum conditions, and unreacted FITC was removed.

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  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. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.

MWReg30

The MWReg30 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD41, which is also known as glycoprotein IIb (gpIIb, GP IIb), Integrin α IIb chain, or Integrin alpha 2b. CD41 is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is encoded by Itga2b. CD41 associates with Integrin β3 chain (gpIIIa or CD61) to form the gpIIb/IIIa (CD41/CD61) complex. CD41/CD61 is expressed on platelets, megakaryocytes, and early hematopoietic progenitors. The integrin complex binds to fibrinogen, fibronectin, vitronectin, von Willebrand factor, and thrombospondin. It is important for platelet adhesion and aggregation, and it may play a role in osteolytic tumor metastasis.

FITC
Fluorescein (FITC) is part of the BD blue family of dyes. This is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 494-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 518-nm. FITC is designed to be excited by the Blue laser (488-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 520 nm (e.g., a 530/30-nm bandpass filter). Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
