CD20 (clone 2H7) APC-Cyanine7, anti-human

Description:
The 2H7 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with human CD20, a 33-37kDA B-lymphocyte surface molecule. CD20 is an unglycosylated four-transmembrane phosphoprotein expressed by B cells in all stage of development, except the final plasma cells. It has been reported that the molecule is involved in B cell activation and has also been observed on a subset of circulating T lymphocytes.

Research Interest: Adaptive Immunity
Cell Type: B Cells

Preparation:
The product should be stored undiluted at 4°C and should be protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified utilizing affinity chromatography and unreacted dye was removed from the product.

Formulation:
Phosphate-buffered aqueous solution, ≤0.09% Sodium azide, may contain carrier protein/stabilizer, ph7.2.
