CD3 Monoclonal / FITC / REA613
Product Details
| Description | Clone REA613 recognizes the human CD3 antigen, a single-pass type I membrane protein, also known as Leu4. CD3 is present on mature human T cells, thymocytes, a subset of natural killer (NK) cells, and on Purkinje cells in cerebellum. It is associated with the T cell receptor (TCR) and is responsible for its signal transduction. The CD3 antigen is a complex of five invariable chains: gamma, delta, epsilon, zeta, and η. The epitope recognized by the antibody is located on the epsilon-chain of the CD3 complex. | Additional information: Clone REA613 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors. | |

About FITC
Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) has an excitation peak at 495 nm and an emission peak at 519 nm. The name FITC is a misnomer in that the isothiocyanate is a reactive form of this dye. Once FITC is conjugated to an antibody, it is simply Fluorescein conjugated. FITC is one of the most widely used dyes for fluorescent applications, therefore most instruments come standard with a 488 nm laser and FITC filter set up. FITC is commonly conjugated to secondary antibodies and used in applications such as flow cytometry, immunocytochemistry, and immunohistochemistry. FITC is relatively dim, sensitive to photobleaching and it is susceptible to changes is pH. There are better performing alternatives to FITC, like Vio®Bright 515, Alexa Fluor™ 488, iFluor® 488, CF®488A and DY-488. FITC is a long-time generic dye with no sole manufacturer or trademark.
