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 ALULA monoclonal antibody specifically binds to Integrin alpha v beta 5 (αvβ5), which is also known as CD51/β5. Integrin αvβ5 is widely expressed by fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and vascular smooth muscle cells. It is involved in activation-dependent cell migration and cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix. Integrin αvβ5 plays a major role in growth factor-induced angiogenesis in response to VEGF and TGF. The αv Integrins, αvβ5 and αvβ3, αre involved in tumor growth and are being targeted in cancer therapies. The ALULA clone specifically recognizes αvβ5 integrin and functionally blocks the interaction between αvβ5 and vitronectin. Although raised against mouse αvβ5, the ALULA antibody crossreacts with human αvβ5.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV805 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BUV395 with an Ex Max of 348 nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 805 nm. BD Horizon Brilliant BUV805 can be excited by the ultraviolet laser (355 nm) and detected with a 820/60 filter and a 770LP.
