anti-CD66b (ANC3C5) Purified (Preservative-free)
INFORMATION: Human CD66b (CEACAM8, CGMb, NCA-95) is a 95kD member of the Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) group. It is expressed on granulocytes and functions as an adhesion molecule. Similar to the CD66 a, c, and d isoforms, engagement of CD66b on neutrophils causes increased adhesion to endothelial cells (2). Crosslinking CD66b on neutrophils with antibodies triggers IL-8 release (3).

Antibody from clone ANC3C5 binds to CD66b on the cell surface of human PMN in Flow cytometry and works as an EIA capture or detection reagent for recombinant CD66b when paired with clone ANC4A4(Cat #220-020).
