The Mouse CD48 Monoclonal Antibody (FITC Conjugated) HM48-1 (AGEL0111) is a valuable tool for researchers studying CD48, a cell surface protein involved in immune responses and cell signaling. This antibody, developed in a monoclonal format, is conjugated with FITC for easy detection and visualization in flow cytometry and immunofluorescence assays.CD48, also known as signaling lymphocytic activation molecule (SLAMF2), is a key molecule in the immune system that regulates T cell activation and adhesion processes. Its interactions with other immune cells play a crucial role in immune response coordination and modulation. The Mouse CD48 Monoclonal Antibody specifically targets this protein, allowing researchers to investigate its expression and function in different cell types and experimental conditions.
The use of the FITC conjugate enhances the versatility of this antibody, enabling precise and sensitive detection of CD48 in complex biological samples. With its high specificity and reliability, this antibody is an essential tool for studies focusing on immune cell interactions, immune regulation, and immune-related diseases. Researchers looking to delve deeper into the mechanisms of immune responses and cell communication will find the Mouse CD48 Monoclonal Antibody (FITC Conjugated) HM48-1 (AGEL0111) to be a valuable asset in their research endeavors.
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by flow cytometric analysis. The amount of the reagent is suggested to be used 5 µL of antibody per test (million cells in 100 µL staining volume or per 100 µL of whole blood). Please check your vial before the experiment. Since applications vary, the appropriate dilutions must be determined for individual use.

Background:
CD48 is a 45 kD GPI-anchored glycoprotein also known as BCM1, Blast-1 (human), and OX-45 (rat). It is a member of the Ig superfamily, expressed on T and B cells and monocytes/macrophages. It plays a role in adhesion and T cell recognition. The primary ligands for CD48 are CD2 and CD244.
