BD, 555525, Purified Mouse Anti-Human CD64 10.1

The 10.1 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD64, a 72 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is a high affinity receptor for human IgG (FcγRI), especially the IgG1 and IgG3 subclasses. CD64 is expressed on monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, granulocytes activated with interferon-gamma and early myeloid lineage cells. CD64 associates with a signaling FcRγ homodimer to form the functional high affinity FcγRI complex. CD64 functions in both innate and adaptive immune responses and mediates endocytosis, phagocytosis, antigen presentation, antibody-dependent cellular toxicity, cytokine release and superoxide generation.

Store undiluted at 4°C. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography.
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. Sodium azide is a reversible inhibitor of oxidative metabolism; therefore, antibody preparations containing this preservative agent must not be used in cell cultures nor injected into animals. Sodium azide may be removed by washing stained cells or plate-bound antibody or dialyzing soluble antibody in sodium azide-free buffer. Since endotoxin may also affect the results of functional studies, we recommend the NA/LE (No Azide/Low Endotoxin) antibody format, if available, for in vitro and in vivo use.
