BD, 551133, Purified Mouse Anti-Rat CD24 HIS50

The HIS50 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD24 (Heat-Stable Antigen, HSA or HsAg), a variably glycosylated GPI-anchored membrane protein. In the rat, Cd24 mRNA is found in a variety of epithelia, neural tissue, lymph node germinal centers and thymus. The HIS50 antibody detects CD24 on most B-lineage cells in the bone marrow, on most highly surface IgM (sIgM)-positive B lymphocytes in the blood and spleen, and on marginal-zone B cells in the spleen and lymph node. Variable levels of CD24 are detected on B cells that expresses low levels of sIgM and on follicular B lymphocytes. The HIS50 antibody does not detect CD24 on rat thymocytes nor peripheral T lymphocytes, NK cells, or granulocytes. The HIS50 antibody crossreacts with intracellular antigen(s) in human lymphocytes.

The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. Store undiluted at 4°C.
1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
