BD, 551533, APC Mouse Anti-Human MIP-1α (CCL3) 11A3

The 11A3 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α), a member of the CC chemokine family of proteins. It is produced by T cells, B cells, Langerhans cells, neutrophils and macrophages. MIP-1α plays a role as an inhibitor of stem cell proliferation and as a chempattractant of B cells, eosinophils and cytotoxic T cells. Clone 11A3 also cross-reacts with an intracellular component of rhesus and cynomolgus macaque-LPS-stimulated peripheral blood monocytes. The reactivity pattern observed on CD14-positive cells is similar to that seen on normal human peripheral blood monocytes.

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 to APC under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free APC were removed.
1. This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
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. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
5. Species cross-reactivity detected in product development may not have been confirmed on every format and/or application.
