CD23 Antibody Staining Protocol for Immunohistochemistry
Description: The CD23 antigen is a membrane glycoprotein of 45kD found on a subpopulation of peripheral blood cells, B lymphocytes and on EBV transformed B lymphoblastoid cell lines. The CD23 molecule is identical to the low affinity IgE receptor found on B cells.

Results:
| Staining Pattern: Membrane |
| Images: Search image |
Additional Information:
| Tissue Type: Tonsil |
| Fixation: Formalin fixed paraffin sections, or acetone fixed frozen sections |
| Positive Control: Tonsil |
| Negative Control: Omit primary antibody, isotype control or absorption control |
| Blocking: 2-5% normal serum to reduce unspecific background staining; 0.5-3% H2O2 to block endogenous peroxidase activity; avidin/biotin to block endogenous biotin activity if necessary |
