Target CD160 Target background CD160 is a 27 kDa glycoprotein receptor that shows broad specificity for both classical and non-classical MHC class I molecules. It is expressed in spleen, peripheral blood, and small intestine. CD160 expression is restricted to functional NK, CD8 T cells, γδ T cells, and intraepithelial lymphocytes. Target alias CD160 antigen, Natural killer cell receptor BY5, CD_antigen: CD160 Immunogen mouse CD160-Fc Specificity The antibody recognizes CD160 at the cell surface in mice Clone ID CNX46-3 Isotype IgG2b kappa Preservative None Format Purified with protein G, stored in PBS pH 7.4 and lyophilized. Recommend starting dilution If reconstituted with deionized water in 500 µL: WB 1:100. Optimal dilution has to be determined by the user. Limitations Research Use Only Storage Lyophilized antibodies can be kept at 4ºC for up to 3 months and should be kept at -20ºC for long-term storage (2 years). To avoid freeze-thaw cycles, reconstituted antibodies should be aliquoted before freezing for long-term (1 year) storage (-80ºC) or kept at 4ºC for short-term usage (2 months). For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made with the assay buffer. After the maximum long-term storage period (2 years lyophilized or 1 year reconstituted) antibodies should be tested in your assay with a standard sample to verify if you have noticed any decrease in their efficacy. To limit antibody loss or degradation, BSA (final concentration 1%) and sodium azide (final concentration 0.02%) can be added to the suggested first dilution. It is important to first verify if those preservatives are compatible with your assay.
