50 mM Sodium Phosphate pH 7.5, 500 mM Potassium Chloride, 150mM NaCl, 15% Glycerol, 0.2% BSA.
Concentration
Volume: 0.2 ml (varies by lot)
Applicable Applications for anti-CD54 antibody
Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS), ELISA (EIA)
Application Notes
1:50 (or use 1.6ul concentrated stock per 5 x 105 cell test)
Performance
Five x 105 cultured Raji cells were washed and incubated 45 minutes on ice with 80 ul of anti-CD54/R-PE at a 1:50 dilution (10ug/ml). Cells were washed three times, fixed and analyzed by FACS. Cells stained positive with a mean shift of 2.79 log10 fluorescent units when compared to a Mouse IgG1/R-PE negative control at a similar concentration. Binding was blocked when cells were pre incubated 10 minutes with 20 ul of 0.5 mg/ml anti-CD54 (8.4A6) antibody.
Conjugation
PE
Production
Protein A purified antibody from tissue culture supernatant was conjugated to R-Phycoerythrin through a sulfo-ester linkage. Unconjugated antibody was removed using size exclusion chromatography. Antibody conjugate is at 0.5 mg/ml with an A565/A280 ratio of 2.84.
Buffer
50 mM Sodium Phosphate pH 7.5, 500 mM Potassium Chloride, 150mM NaCl, 15% Glycerol, 0.2% BSA, 0.04% NaN3 (as a preservative).
Immunogen
Human endothelial cells
Preparation and Storage
Store at 2 - 5 degree C. Do not freeze! Protect from light. Product should retain activity for at least 12 months after shipping date when stored as recommended.
Testing Data
Related Product Information for anti-CD54 antibody
Information: Human CD54 (ICAM-1) mediates cell adhesion by binding to the integrins CD11a/CD18 (LFA-1) and to CD11b/CD18 (Mac-1). CD54 expression on resting peripheral blood leukocytes is weak but is upregulated on activated T and B lymphocytes and monocytes. Antibody 8.4A6 recognizes the D2 domain of the CD54 molecule of 90 kd. Antibody 8.4A6 inhibits CD54 binding to LFA-1.

The CD54 (Catalog #AAA666628) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The anti-human CD54 (D2)-R-PE reacts with Human, Primate and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's CD54 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS), ELISA (EIA). 1:50 (or use 1.6ul concentrated stock per 5 x 105 cell test). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CD54 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.
It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of
"CD54, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of
the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always
suggest centrifuging these vials
to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to
opening. Please be advised that
certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an
additional dry ice fee may also be
required.
