Granulocytes mouse monoclonal antibody, clone 2B2, FITC

Specifications

Product Data

• Clone Name: 2B2
• Applications: FC
• Recommended Dilution: Flow Cytometry: Use 10 µl of neat antibody to label 1x10e6 cells in 100 µl
• Reactivities: Porcine
• Host: Mouse
• Isotype: IgG1
• Clonality: Monoclonal
• Immunogen: Porcine bone marrow haematopoietic cells (BMHC).
• Specificity: This antibody specifically recognises Porcine Eosinophils, Neutrophils and Basophils, acting as a reliable tool for their analysis and isolation, without contamination from other cells.
  Analysis of Porcine bone marrow and blood shows that the antigen recognised by clone 2B2 is selectively expressed on mature cells, and that it is likely to be a labile conformational epitope.
  Use of clone 2B2 in conjunction with clone 6D10 (product AM05606PU-N), allows for the discrimination and characterisation of different porcine granulocyte lineages and also their developmental stages: 6D10- 2B2- early myeloid precursors, 6D10+2B2- immature neutrophils, 6D10+2B2+ mature neutrophils and 6D10-2B2+ mature Eosinophils and Basophils.
  Clone 2B2 has been shown as suitable for use on cytospins. (1)

• Background: Granulocytes are a type of white blood cell filled with microscopic granules that are little sacs containing enzymes, compounds that digest microorganisms. They are part of the innate immune system and have somewhat nonspecific, broad-based activity. They do not respond exclusively to specific antigens, as do B-cells and T-cells.
  Neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils are all types of granulocytes. They are named by the staining features of their granules in the laboratory: Neutrophils have "neutral" subtle granules; Eosinophils have prominent granules that stain readily with the acid dye eosin; and Basophils have prominent granules that stain readily basic (non acidic) dyes.
