In 150 mM NaCl, 100 mM KCl, 50 mM sodium phosphate, 0.5 mg/ml gentamicin sulfate, pH 7.5.
Other Notes
FACS was performed on 5x10⁵ cultured Raji human tumor cells. Optimal binding concentration tested was 5 µg/ml using FITC-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG as a secondary antibody. This antibody has also been reported to work for frozen sections, immunoprecipitation, and paraffin sections. Variables associated with assay conditions will dictate the proper working dilution.
