Rat monoclonal [PC61.5.3] antibody to IL-2 Receptor alpha (PE).
Specificity
This antibody recognises the low affinity alpha chain of the interleukin-2 receptor present on activated T and B cells in mice. Rat anti Mouse CD25 antibody, clone PC61.5.3 is reported to inhibit IL-2 binding and IL-2 dependent proliferation.
Applications
Flow Cytometry
Dilutions
Flow Cytometry: Neat, Use 10µl of the suggested working dilution to label 106 cells in 100µl. The Fc region of monoclonal antibodies may bind to cells expressing low affinity Fc receptors. This may be reduced by using SeroBlock FcR (BUF041A/BUF041B).
