Clonality Monoclonal
Immunogen Rat/mouse T cell hybrids expressing CD8.
Specificity This monoclonal antibody reacts with the beta chain of the CD8 differentiation antigen.
The 3.4.1 antibody also blocks both activation in an allogenic response and cell mediated cytotoxicity by
CD8 T cells.
Formulation PBS containing 0.02% Sodium Azide as preservative and EIA grade BSA as a stabilizing protein to bring total protein concentration to 4-5 mg/ml.
Label: Biotin
State: Liquid purified IgG fraction.

Purification Protein G Chromatography of Ascites fluid.
Conjugation Biotin
Gene Name Rattus norvegicus CD8b molecule (Cd8b)
Background CD8b is expressed on most thymocytes and mature T cytotoxic/suppressor cells (MHC class I restricted). While the CD8a and CD8b form a heterodimer on the surface of thymocytes and thymus-dependent T cytotoxic/suppressor cells, the majority of NK cells, many CD8 T cells from athymic rats, many activated CD4 T cells, and intestinal epithelium lymphocytes (IEL) express CD8a without CD8b.
This suggests that expression of the CD8 heterodimer (a/b) is more dependant on intrathymic T cell maturation than that of the homodimer (a/a). The thymus dependence of CD8a/b T cells may be due to a requirement for thymic selection on self MHC class I antigens.
Synonyms CD8B, CD8B1
Note Protocol: Flow Cytometry Analaysis:

Method:
1. Prepare a cell suspension in media A. For cell peparations, deplete the red blood cell population with Lympholyte®-Rat cell separation medium.
2. Wash 2 times.
3. Resuspend the cells to a concentration of 2x10e7 cells/ml in media A. Add 50 μl of this suspension to each tube (each tube will then contain 1x10e6 cells, representing 1 test).
4. To each tube, add 50μl of a 1.0 µg* dilution of SM260B or SM260BX per 10e6 cells.
5. Vortex the tubes to ensure thorough mixing of antibody and cells.
6. Incubate the tubes for 30 minutes at 4°C.
7. Wash 2 times at 4°C.
8. Add 100 μl of secondary antibody PE Streptavidin at 1:500 dilution.
9. Incubate the tubes at 4°C for 30-60 minutes.
(It is recommended that the tubes are protected from light since most fluorochromes are light sensitive).
10. Wash 2 times at 4°C in media B.
11. Resuspend the cell pellet in 50 μl ice cold media B.
Transfer to suitable tubes for flow cytometric analysis containing 15 μl of propidium iodide at 0.5 mg/ml in PBS. This stains dead cells by intercalating in DNA.

Media:
A. Phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.2) + 5% normal serum of host species + sodium azide (100 μl of 2M sodium azide in 100 mls).
B. Phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.2) + 0.5% Bovine serum albumin + sodium azide (100 μl of 2M sodium azide in 100 mls).
