Invitrogen™ CD11a (LFA-1alpha) Monoclonal Antibody (HI111), NovaFluor™ Red 710, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Description

CD11a (LFA-1alpha) Monoclonal antibody specifically detects CD11a (LFA-1alpha) in Human samples. It is validated for Flow Cytometry

Description: The HI111 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD11a, the 180 kDa integrin alphaL, also known as the lymphocyte function associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) alpha chain. LFA-1, formed by non-covalent association of CD11a with CD18 (integrin beta2), serves as an important adhesion molecule involved in lymphocyte and granulocyte function. CD54 (ICAM-1), CD102 (ICAM-2), and CD50 (ICAM-3) are ligands for LFA-1. CD11a is expressed by all leukocytes. Applications Reported: The HI111 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: The HI111 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at 5 μL (0.6 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. 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. <a href = https://www.thermofisher.com/us/en/home/life-science/cell-analysis/flow-cytometry/novafluor-dyes.html>Learn more </a> Excitation: 639 nm; Emission: 710 nm; Laser: 633-640 nm (Red) Laser
