| Description |
The CD8 antibody recognizes the human CD8 antigen which is strongly expressed on human cytotoxic T cells and thymocytes, and is also expressed on a subset of NK cells. The CD8 antigen is a disulfide-linked dimer that exists either as a CD8α homodimer or as a CD8α/β heterodimer. CD8 acts as a coreceptor for the T cell receptor and binds to the MHC Class I molecule. The CD8 antibody recognizes the α-subunit of the antigen. The VioBlue-conjugated CD8 antibody requires the use of a violet laser. |
| Applications |
The CD8 antibody can be used to identify and enumerate CD8+ cells by flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy. This antibody is suitable for MACSĀ® Control applications. For further details, please refer to the data sheet of the separation reagent. |
