The CD48, clone HM48-1, Pacific Blue™ conjugate is an Armenian hamster monoclonal antibody (mAb) that recognizes the mouse CD48 antigen. Our Pacific Blue™ dye is optimally excited by the violet laser and conjugates of this dye are strongly fluorescent even at neutral pH. Since Pacific Blue™ and Pacific Orange™ dye conjugates can be simultaneously excited at 405 nm and emit at 455 nm and 551 nm, respectively, they conveniently facilitate two-color analysis.


Specific for CD48
CD48 is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchored protein receptor belonging to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily. It is expressed on T and B cells, as well as on monocytes and macrophages. CD48 plays a role in adhesion and T-cell recognition. Its primary ligands are CD2 and CD244.
