APC anti-phycoerythrin (PE)
Description
The PE001 antibody reacts with both phycoerythrin (PE) alone and PE conjugated with antibody or streptavidin, as well as PE tandem dyes such as PE/Cy5, PE/Cy5.5 and PE/Cy7. When PE001 antibody is used in a three-step staining procedure or separation of PE-antibody labeled cells, it does not quench PE fluorescence or react with tested mouse and human cells. The PE001 antibody can be used for separation of PE-antibody labeled cells or as a secondary step to amplify PE conjugated primary antibody signals (i.e. biotinylated PE001 as secondary step, followed by Streptavidin-PE).
Formulation
Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide.Recommended Usage
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 ≤ 0.5 µg per million cells in 100 µl volume. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.
