CD48, also known as BLAST-1 or SLAMF2, serves as a critical cell surface glycoprotein within the SLAM family of immunomodulatory receptors. Expressed predominantly on hematopoietic cells, CD48 functions as a ligand for CD2 and 2B4, mediating essential cell-cell adhesion events that regulate lymphocyte activation, cytotoxicity, and immune surveillance. Its involvement in natural killer cell function and T cell co-stimulation makes CD48 a compelling target for researchers investigating immune regulation, hematological malignancies, and immunotherapy development.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 6F9H2, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding immunological research requires. Developed using recombinant technology with a defined human IgG1 framework, this antibody eliminates the lot-to-lot variability inherent in traditional hybridoma-derived reagents. Researchers can confidently design longitudinal studies and multi-site collaborations knowing that antibody performance will remain consistent across experiments.
Validated for flow cytometry applications, this antibody demonstrates clear detection of CD48 on human Jurkat cells, a well-established T cell leukemia line commonly used in lymphocyte biology studies. Flow cytometry validation at dilutions ranging from 1:50 to 1:200 showed distinct positive staining compared to isotype control, confirming specific recognition of surface CD48. The antibody has also been validated for ELISA applications, providing flexibility for researchers employing multiple detection platforms within their experimental workflows.
Supplied in a stabilized liquid format containing glycerol for convenient long-term storage, this antibody is well-suited for investigations into lymphocyte activation pathways, immune checkpoint biology, and the characterization of hematological cell populations where CD48 expression serves as a functionally relevant marker.
