CD18, also known as integrin β2 subunit, LFA-1 β subunit, and β2 integrin, is a 90 - 95 kD type I glycoprotein. CD18 non-covalently associates with CD11a, CD11b, or CD11c. CD18 is expressed on all leukocytes. CD18 and associated α chains function in the adhesion and signaling in hematopoietic cells.
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is 5 µl per million cells or 5 µl per 100 µl of whole blood. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.
