Fibrin beta-chain Antibody (8E5) - Chimeric - Azide and BSA Free

Flow Cytometry: Fibrin beta-chain Antibody (8E5) - Chimeric [NBP2-81111] - Flow-cytometry using the Fibrin beta-chain Antibody [NBP2-81111]. HepG2 cells were fixed using 2% PFA, permeabilised using 0.5% Triton and stained with anti-Fluorescein IgG antibody (isotype control, black line) or the rabbit IgG-chimeric version of 8E5 (NBP2-81111, blue line) at a dilution of 1:100 for 1h at RT. After washing, bound antibody was detected using a goat anti-rabbit IgG AlexaFluor 488 antibody at a dilution of 1:1000 and cells analyzed using a FACSCanto flow-cytometer.

Fibrin beta-chain Antibody (8E5) - Chimeric - Azide and BSA Free Summary

• Additional Information: Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody
• Immunogen: 8E5 was prepared fusing Sp2/o myeloma cells with spleen cells derived from female BALB/c mice immunized with a synthetic beta-fibrin peptide seqeunce GHRPLDKC conjugated to MB-KLH (maleimidobenzoylated keyhole limpet hemocyanin).
• Specificity: 8E5 binds to the amino-terminal region of the beta-chain of human fibrin at an epitope consiting of GHRPLDKC. Binding is possible in both the monomeric form and the polymeric form of the protein. This peptide sequence is found only in fibrin, and not in its precursor fibrinogen and so there is no cross-reactivity with fibrinogen. Fibrin is a non-globular protein which plays a role in the clotting of blood and circulates as the precursor fibrinogen. Polymerization occurs through the action of the protease thrombin, which results in the active fibrin. Fibrin polymerizes as an insoluble matrix and forms a clot along with platelets over a wound site.
• Isotype: IgG Kappa
• Clonality: Monoclonal
• Host: Rabbit
• Gene: FGB
• Purity: Protein A purified

Applications/Dilutions

• Dilutions:
  • ELISA
  • Flow Cytometry
  • In vivo assay
• Application Notes: This chimeric rabbit antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse IgG1 format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques. The recombinant scFv version of 8E5 retains the same antigen-binding activity of the parent antibody. 8E5 can bind to fibrin in the monomeric and polymeric form, both in vivo and ex vivo. This antibody can also be used for the immunodetection of fibrin in vivo. Standard ELISA and competitive ELISA using the epitope peptide has been conducted with both the parental antibody and the scFv.
