  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Human
  • Host: Mouse
  • Application: FACS ; IHC ; IF ; IP ; WB
  • Strain: Balb/c
  • Description: CD9 antigen is a glycoprotein expressed on the surface of developing B lymphocytes, platelets, monocytes, eosinophils, basophil, stimulated T lymphocytes and neurons and glial cells in the peripheral nervous system. CD9 mediates platelet aggregation and activation via FCGR2a. It may play a role in cell migration.
