SpecificityThe mouse monoclonal antibody CLB-GB11 recognizes granzyme B, a 31 kDa serine protease expressed intracellularly in activated Tc cells and NK cells.
ApplicationFC (QC tested)
Application detailsFlow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 4 μl reagent / 100 μl of whole blood or 106 cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (0.4 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.
ReactivityNon-human primates, Human
ImmunogenHuman NK cell line YT-INDY-derived granzyme B
Other namesGZMB, HLP, CTLA1, SECT
PreparationThe purified antibody is conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions. The conjugate is purified by size-exclusion chromatography.
FormulationStabilizing phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution containing 15mM sodium azide
Storage and handlingStore in the dark at 2-8°C. Do not freeze. Avoid prolonged exposure to light. Do not use after expiration date stamped on vial label.
