Specific Information

Description: This GL7 monoclonal antibody reacts with a cell-surface protein found on T and B lymphocytes activated in vitro, on bone marrow pre-B-II cells, germinal center B cells, and also human B cell lines Ramos and Daudi. There is strain variability with respect to antigen distribution on thymocytes and Con A-activated spleen cells, with expression in BALB/c greater than that in C57BL/6. GL7 is commonly used as a marker for mouse germinal center B cells. The epitope of GL7 has been identified as a sialic acid glycan moiety called Neu5Ac. This moiety is recognized by CD22.

Applications Reported: This GL-7 (GL7) antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested: This GL-7 (GL7) antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of stimulated mouse splenocytes. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.5 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.

Excitation: 488 nm; Emission: 519 nm; Laser: Blue Laser.

Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.
