This product recognizes the human CD45 cell surface antigen, also known as the leucocyte common antigen (LCA). CD45 is a complex molecule existing in a number of isoforms.
Antibodies recognising a common epitope on all of these isoforms are termed CD45 whilst those recognising only individual isoforms are termed CD45RA or CD45RO etc.
This antibody reacts with all forms of CD45 expressed by all hematopoietic cells, except erythrocytes, having a higher level of expression on lymphocytes than on granulocytes.
This product is routinely tested in flow cytometry on human peripheral blood leucocytes
