Summary

The Good

This antibody can control for background fluorescence

The Bad

This antibody demonstrates very high levels of signal to noise ratio

The Bottom Line

This isotype antibody must be used with the primary PerCp-eFluor 710 antibody to control for the high amounts of background noise.
