CD8a Antibody

CD8 molecule consists of two chains, termed alpha and beta chain, which are expressed as a disulphide-linked heterodimer or homodimer. CD8 is expressed on T cell subset (cytotoxic/suppressor T cells), thymocytes and NK cells.

Applications Notes

Variations in protocols, secondaries and substrates may require the CD8a antibody to be titered up or down for optimal performance.1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in pH 9 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
