This antibody 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 Rat anti Mouse CD40 antibody, clone 3/23 was demonstrated by ELISA and flow cytometry using BHK cells transfected with mouse CD40.Rat anti Mouse CD40 antibody, clone 3/23 is a powerful activator of normal B cells especially in the presence of IL-4.
