CD44, Biolegend, 163602

Our team has carried out deep research in the published scientific literature to identify papers and reports using antibodies directed against human CD44 and followed up by extraction and evaluation of the available data to assess its performance according to pAbmAbs rating criteria.

YCharOS is here conducting a large head-to-head study comparing 32 commercial research antibodies against human CD44.

The collection of antibodies was tested using MDA-MB-231 WT and CD44 KO cells in the applications WB (WT and KO cell lysates/30 µg protein), IP (WT cell lysate), IF (WT and KO cells) and FC (WT and KO cells) according to YCharOS standard protocols (see reference). This antibody was only tested in flow cytometry.

Cell surface and intracellular flow cytometry (0,665 µg/mL antibody) showed a clear fluorescence shift in the WT cell population compared with the KO cells, indicating specific binding of the antibody to the target protein.

We highly encourage other scientists to share their observations.
