NCAM / CD56 Antibody

Western blot: 0.5-1ug/ml,Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 0.5-1ug/ml for 30 min at RT (1),Prediluted IHC only format: incubate for 30 min at RT (2)

Titering of the CD56 antibody may be required for optimal performance.

1. FFPE testing requires sections to be boiled in pH6 10mM citrate buffer for 10-20 minutes, followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes, prior to staining.
2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.

CD56/NCAM is a cell adhesion protein which is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is involved in cell-to-cell interactions as well as cell-matrix interactions during development and differentiation. CD56 has been shown to be involved in development of the nervous system, and for cells involved in the expansion of T cells and dendritic cells which play an important role in immune surveillance.
