Application Notes

The original mouse IgG1 version of this antibody was used for the indirect immunofluorescence staining of a fixed bone marrow smear from a patient with T-cell leukemia. The binding specificity of this antibody towards CD99 was tested using radioimmunoassay (PMID: 316541). This antibody was able to identify 28 kDa component present on lymphocytes, red blood cells and platelets in a western blot assay (PMID: 2447875). This antibody was used in the immunocytochemical studies of Ewing's sarcoma and peripheral neuroectodermal tumour (PMID: 8314240). This antibody was also used in the immunohistochemical studies of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded lymphoblastic lymphoma (LyL)/acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) samples collected from 24 patients (PMID: 9343323). This antibody was also used in a study relating to the cell surface expression MIC2 antigen on human leukocytes in bone marrow (BM), thymus, and peripheral blood (PB) using multiparameter flow cytometry and cell sorting (PMID: 7506950).

Short Description

This chimeric human antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse IgG1 format for improved compatibility with existing reagents assays and techniques.
