Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer should be used anytime two or more BD Horizon Brilliant dyes (including BD OptiBuild Brilliant reagents) are used in the same experiment. Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation. The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794).
Product Notices
- This antibody was developed for use in flow cytometry.
- The production process underwent stringent testing and validation to assure that it generates a high-quality conjugate with consistent performance and specific binding activity. However, verification testing has not been performed on all conjugate lots.
- Researchers should determine the optimal concentration of this reagent for their individual applications.
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.

Companion Products
The AH9R7 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the Interleukin-9 Receptor (IL-9R, IL-9Rα) also known as CD129. CD129 is a Type I transmembrane glycoprotein and a Type I Cytokine Receptor (Hemopoietin) Superfamily member. The high-affinity, signaling IL-9 Receptor complex is comprised of CD129 (IL-9 Receptor alpha chain subunit) and CD132 (common γ chain/γc). CD129 is expressed by hematopoietic progenitors, thymocytes, T cells, B cells, macrophages, eosinophils, mast cells, epithelia cells, muscle cells and neurons. IL-9 signals through the IL-9R complex (ie, through JAK, STAT and related signal pathways) to regulate the growth, proliferation, differentiation and survival of myeloid and erythroid progenitor cells, thymocytes, T cells, B cells and some tumor cells.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV786 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 with an Ex Max of 405-nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 786-nm. BD Horizon BV786 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in a filter used to detect Cy™7-like dyes (eg, 780/60-nm filter).
