CD54 (ICAM-1) Monoclonal Antibody (YN1/1.7.4), NovaFluor™ Yellow 700, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Description

• CD54 (ICAM-1) Monoclonal antibody specifically detects CD54 (ICAM-1) in Mouse samples
• It is validated for Flow Cytometry Description: The YN1/1.7.4 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse CD54 (InterCellular Adhesion Molecule-1, ICAM-1), a 90-110 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein expressed by monocytes, lymphocytes, dendritic cells, and endothelial cells
• Expression of CD54 is upregulated on activated lymphocytes
• Interaction of CD54 with its ligands CD11a and CD11b is important in the inflammatory response
• The YN1/1.7.4 monoclonal antibody recognizes a different epitope than the eBioKAT-1 monclonal antibody
• Applications Reported: The YN1/1.7.4 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis
• Applications Tested: The YN1/1.7.4 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes
• This can be used at less than or equal to 0.4 μg per test
• A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL
• Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test
• It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest
• Each product contains 1 vial of NovaFluor conjugate and 1 vial of CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer
• NovaFluor dyes are not compatible with DNA intercalating viability dyes
• Do not use viability dyes such as propidium iodide, 7-actinomycin D (7-AAD) and DAPI
• Invitrogen LIVE/DEAD Fixable Dead Cell stains are recommended for use with NovaFluor dyes
• This NovaFluor conjugate has been updated to ship with CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer (Cat
• No
• (<a href='https://www.thermofisher.com/order/catalog/product/C001T06F01'>C001T06F01</a>))
• This buffer contains formulation improvements over CellBlox
• CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer is required for optimal staining with NovaFluor conjugates and should be used in all experiments where NovaFluor conjugates are used
• Whenever possible, we recommend adding CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer to antibody cocktails/master mixes prior to combining with cells
• Add 5 μL per sample (regardless of the number of NovaFluors in your panel) to use the antibody cocktail as intended
• For single-color controls, use 5 μL of CellBlox Blocking Buffer per 100 μL of cell sample containing 10^3 to 10^8 cells
• NovaFluor conjugates are based on Phiton™ technology utilizing novel nucleic acid dye structures that allow for engineered fluorescent signatures with consideration for spillover and spread impacts

• Non-specific staining has not been observed in BALB/c or C57BL/6 mice
• Other strains have not been tested
• See the Antibody Testing Data for an example of this strain-dependent difference.
