Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	OX-3
Applications	FC
Recommend Dilution	Flow cytometry: Use 10 µl of neat antibody to label 10e6 cells in 100 µl.
Reactivity	Mouse, Rat
Host	Mouse
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	Rat thymocyte membrane glycoproteins. Spleen cells from immunised BALB/c mice were fused with cells from the NS1 mouse myeloma cell line.
Specificity	This antibody recognises a polymorphic determinant of Ia antigen (RT1.Bu) present on Lewis, Wistar and AO strain rats but not BN, DA or PVG/c strains. This antibody is useful for distinguishing Ia positive cells from different rat strains, e.g. for recognising cells of donor origin in bone marrow reconstituted radiation chimaeras. MRC OX-3 cross reacts with mouse strains of MHC haplotypes b and s, and analysis of recombinant mouse strains showed that the determinants mapped to the I-A region. This antibody recognises Ia antigens on B-cells, dendritic cells and certain epithelial cells.
Formulation	PBS, pH7.4 containing 0.09% Sodium Azide and 1% Bovine Serum Albumin Label: FITC State: Liquid purified IgG Label: Fluorescein Isothiocyanate Isomer 1
Concentration	lot specific
Conjugation	FITC
Storage Condition	Store the antibody undiluted at 2-8°C for one month or (in aliquots) at -20°C for longer. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing. This product is photosensitive and should be protected from light.
