96 Tests PN: B113395

Components:

45x Ab-conjugated beads (S4P11-human sBLAME Ab-bead). PN: B113395A. One vial containing 100 µL of anti-human sBLAME conjugated to AimPlex Bead S4P11.

25x Biotin-detection (human sBLAME Biotin-dAb). PN: B113395B. One vial containing 100 µL of biotinylated anti-human sBLAME.

Lyophilized Standard Mix-Human Group B, 9-Plex. PN: HG9009B. One vial containing lyophilized recombinant human sCEACAM-1, sALCAM, sSLAMF4, sHVEM, sB7-DC, sB7-H1, sEpCAM, sBLAME and sEPOR.  Note: If multiple analyte kits on the above target list are ordered as a panel, only one vial of standard mix is supplied for those analyte kits.

Application: Optimal antibody pair and antigen standard for assaying human Human SLAMF8/BLAME/sCD353. Can be multiplexed with other analytes in Human Group 9.  To be used in conjunction with the AimPlex NR Basic Kit (PN: P100001) and a diluent kit. Refer to the AimPlex Multiplex Immunoassay User Manual and kit inserts for the assay procedure.

Storage:  2-8 C in the dark.

Important: Sodium azide forms explosive compounds with heavy metals. These products contain <0.05% (w/w) azide which with repeated contact with lead and copper commonly found in plumbing drains may result in the buildup of shock sensitive compounds. Dispose in accordance with regulations from your institute.

Description:

SLAM family member 8 (SLAMF8 or CD353 or BLAME) is a protein that in humans encodes a member of the CD2 family of cell surface proteins involved in lymphocyte activation. These proteins are characterized by Ig domains. This protein is expressed in lymphoid tissues, and studies of a similar protein in mouse suggest that it may function during B cell lineage commitment. The gene is found in a region of chromosome 1 containing many CD2 genes.
