Background
LFA-1 beta is a leukocyte adhesion receptor to (ICAM's) intercellular adhesion molecules. LFA-1 beta is on virtually all peripheral blood lymphocytes, 95,000 M.W. surface antigen.

Synonyms: CD18* PE

Product

Product Form: RPE

Formulation: Provided as solution in phosphate buffered saline with 0.08% sodium azide and 0.2% carrier protein

Purification Method: Protein A/G Chromatography

Concentration: Titered for flow cytometry

Applications
PBMC: Add10 µl of MAB/10^6 PBMC in 100 µl PBS. Mix gently and incubate for 15 minutes at 2° to 8°C. Wash twice with PBS and analyze or fix with 0.5% v/v of paraformaldehyde in PBS and analyze.
