The PE-Cyanine7 Anti-Human CD9 Antibody (HI9a) offered by AssayGenie is a reliable tool for studying CD9, a cell surface protein known to be involved in various cellular processes. This antibody, optimized for use in flow cytometry applications, is specifically designed to react with human samples and provides excellent sensitivity and specificity.CD9, a member of the tetraspanin family, plays a significant role in cell adhesion, migration, and signaling, making it an important target for research in cell biology, cancer biology, and immunology. By binding to CD9, the PE-Cyanine7 Anti-Human CD9 Antibody (HI9a) enables precise detection and quantification of CD9 expression in different cell types, allowing for in-depth analysis of its functions and mechanisms of action.
With its superior performance in flow cytometry, this antibody is a valuable tool for researchers looking to explore the roles of CD9 in various physiological and pathological processes. Its application in studying cell-cell interactions, signal transduction, and disease mechanisms make it an essential component in advancing our understanding of CD9 biology and its potential implications in health and disease.
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by flow cytometric analysis. The amount of the reagent is suggested to be used 5 µL of antibody per test (million cells in 100 µL staining volume or per 100 µL of whole blood). Please check your vial before the experiment. Since applications vary, the appropriate dilutions must be determined for individual use.

Background:
CD9 is a 24 kD type III transmembrane protein also known as tetraspanin, MRP-1 and DRAP-24. It is a member of the tetraspan family (spanning the membrane four times) found on platelets, B cell progenitors, activated lymphocytes, granulocytes, endothelial cells and epithelial cells. CD9 induces adhesion, platelet aggregation, and B cell development. CD9 has been shown to associate with CD63, CD81, CD82, and CD36 and to bind to β1 integrins.
