FITC anti-mouse I-Ab (MHC-II)

Catalog Number:

116405

I study the immune responses within the heart during different forms of heart disease. This antibody was used to identify the different macrophage populations residing in the murine heart. FITC anti-I-Ab antibody works well to identify and characterize cardiac MFs in C57BL/6 mice.

Summary

The Good

FITC anti-mouse I-Ab is useful to differentiate cardiac macrophages

The Bad

Proper cytometer configuration and settings are essential to resolve high versus low expression

The Bottom Line

FITC I-Ab antibody is useful to identify cardiac macrophages and differentiate low and high-expressing subsets. However, adequate cytometer settings are very important to properly resolve these two subsets.
