Anti-CD11b Antibody [ED8] (FITC) (A280336)

Anti-CD11b Antibody [ED8] (FITC)

Mouse monoclonal [ED8] antibody to CD11b (FITC).

This antibody recognises a membrane antigen on rat macrophages, monocytes, dendritic cells and granulocytes. It also recognises small ramified microglia in the central nervous system. No other cell types are positive for ED8. The recognized antigen is a heterodimer consisting of ~160 and ~95 kDa, belonging to the family of adhesion molecules CD11b/CD18, also designated as Mac-1 antigen or CR3. Mouse anti Rat CD11b antibody, clones ED7 (MCA618R) and ED8 may recognize closely related epitopes on the same molecule. Both clones ED7 and ED8 induce homotypic aggregation of granulocytes (Draskovic-Pavlovic et al. 1999).
