Scientific Data Images for Mouse CD3 Antibody

Detection of CD3 in mouse splenocytes by Flow Cytometry

Mouse splenocytes were stained with Rat Anti-Mouse B220/CD45R PE-conjugated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # FAB1217P) and either (A) Rat Anti-Mouse CD3 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB4841) or (B) isotype control antibody (Catalog # MAB0061) followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Rat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0113). View our protocol for Staining Membrane-associated Proteins.
CD3 antibody in Mouse Splenocytes by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

CD3 in Mouse Splenocytes.

CD3 was detected in immersion fixed mouse splenocytes using Rat Anti-Mouse CD3 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB4841) at 3 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Rat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; NL013) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to plasma membrane.

CD3 antibody in Mouse Brain.

CD3 in Mouse Brain.

CD3 was detected in perfusion fixed HSV-1 infected frozen sections of mouse brain (perivascular cuffing) using 10 µg/mL Rat Anti-Mouse CD3 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB4841) overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the NorthernLights™ 493-conjugated Anti-Rat IgG Secondary Antibody (green; NL015) and counterstained with DAPI (blue).

Background: CD3

Monoclonal 17A2 was generated by immunizing rats with a T-cell hybridoma (1). This antibody has been shown to react with the epsilon chain of the CD3 complex (1). The CD3 protein complex is expressed on thymocytes and mature T-cells and, therefore, is a useful reagent to monitor T-cell frequencies in tissues.
