The F4/80, clone BM8, Pacific Blue™ dye conjugate is a monoclonal rat antibody that is specific to mouse F4/80 and recognizes the expressed product of the Emr1 gene. Our Pacific Blue™ dye is optimally excited by the violet laser and conjugates of this dye are strongly fluorescent even at neutral pH. Pacific Blue™ and Pacific Orange™ dye conjugates can be simultaneously excited at 405 nm and emit at 455 nm and 551 nm, respectively, facilitating two-color analysis.

Specificity for F4/80
The BM8 monoclonal antibody (mAb) reacts with the mouse F4/80 which is a macrophage-restricted cell surface glycoprotein. In addition to being useful for immunostaining for flow cytometry, other reported applications for the BM8 mAb include immunohistochemistry of acetone-fixed frozen sections and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections.
