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 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 or 566349).
When setting up compensation, it is recommended to compare spillover values obtained from cells and BD™ CompBeads to ensure that beads will provide sufficiently accurate spillover values.
For optimal results, it is recommended to perform two washes after staining with antibodies. Cells may be prepared, stained with antibodies and washed twice with wash buffer per established protocols for immunofluorescent staining prior to acquisition on a flow cytometer. Performing fewer than the recommended wash steps may lead to increased spread of the negative population.
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.

The HMα5-1 antibody specifically recognizes the α5 subunit of the integrin α5β1 fibronectin receptor (CD49e/CD29, VLA-5) on mouse thymocytes and a variety of mouse cell lines, including pre-B and non-lymphoid cells, but not on mouse splenic or lymph node cells. It also detects rat CD49e on the RBL2H3 basophilic leukemia cell line,peritoneal mast cells, and endothelium, but not on splenocytes. It has been reported that soluble mAb HMα5-1 partially inhibits in vitro binding of a mouse cell line and of rat mast cells to fibronectin and inhibits the enhanced degranulation of IgE-sensitized rat RBL cells induced on fibronectin-coated plates. It has also been observed that plate-bound HMα5-1 antibody enhances the degranulation of IgEsensitized rat RBL-2H3 cells and that subcutaneous injection of HMα5-1 mAb into rats, along with anti-CD49d and anti-CD61 antibodies, inhibits experimentally induced passive cutaneous anaphylaxis.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BB700, which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Blue family of dyes. It is a polymer-based tandem dye developed exclusively by BD Biosciences. With an excitation max of 485 nm and an emission max of 693 nm, BD Horizon BB700 can be excited by the 488 nm laser and detected in a standard PerCP-Cy™5.5 set (eg, 695/40-nm filter). This dye provides a much brighter alternative to PerCP-Cy5.5 with less cross laser excitation off the 405 nm and 355 nm lasers.
