MCA1143P647 recognises the murine CD40 cell surface glycoprotein. It does not react with normal mouse Ig or with human IgG1 and will stain most mature mouse B cells. It does not cross react with mouse T cells. The specificity of this clone was demonstrated by ELISA and flow cytometry using BHK cells transfected with mouse CD40.
Clone 3/23 is a powerful activator of normal B cells especially in the presence of IL-4.
Tandem conjugates of RPE - Alexa Fluor® 647 display fluorescence properties that are virtually identical to those of RPE – Cy5 tandem conjugates.
Fusion Partners
Spleen cells from immunised LOU/c rats were fused with cells of the Ag8 mouse myeloma cell line.

Flow Cytometry
Neat - 1/5
Where this antibody has not been tested for use in a particular technique this does not necessarily exclude its use in such procedures. It is recommended that the user titrates the antibody for use in their own system using appropriate negative/positive controls.
Flow Cytometry
Use 10ul of the suggested working dilution to label 106cells in 100ul.
The Fc region of monoclonal antibodies may bind non-specifically to cells expressing low affinity fc receptors. This may be reduced by using SeroBlock FcR (BUF041A/B).
