PE Mouse Anti-Human Vimentin
PE Mouse Anti-Human Vimentin
Flow cytometric analysis of vimentin in human embryonic stem (ES) cells differentiated to a neural fate. H9 human ES cells (WiCell, Madison, WI) passage 48 were differentiated with media containing Noggin (R&D Systems) for 17 days (Yuan SH, Martin J, Elia J, et al, 2011), fixed in BD Cytofix™ buffer (Cat. No. 554655), permeabilized with BD Phosflow™ Perm buffer III (Cat. No. 558050), and stained with matching concentrations of either PE Mouse IgG1, κ isotype control (dashed line, Cat. No. 554680) or PE Mouse Anti-Vimentin monoclonal antibody (Cat. No. 562337, solid line). Histograms were derived from gated events based on light scattering characteristics of the H9-derived ectoderm. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD™ LSR II flow cytometry system.

Flow cytometric analysis of vimentin in mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). MSC (Lonza) were fixed in BD Cytofix™ buffer (Cat. No. 554655), permeabilized with BD Phosflow™ Perm buffer III (Cat. No. 558050), and stained with matching concentrations of either PE Mouse IgG1, κ isotype control (Cat. No. 554680, dashed line) or PE Mouse Anti-Vimentin monoclonal antibody (Cat.

Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed.

Product Notices

  1. This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
  2. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  3. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  4. 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.
  5. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
  6. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.

Intermediate filaments (IF) are a subset of cytoskeletal proteins which function to give overall structural integrity to the plasma membrane as well to organize cells into specific tissues. IF proteins can be divided into six major types based upon the similarity in sequence. Vimentin belongs to the type III category of IF proteins which are expressed in leukocytes, blood vessel endothelial cells, some epithelial cells, and mesenchymal cells. Vimentin is also expressed together with several other IF proteins during the early stages of development. Vimentin is exchanged for the tissue-specific intermediate filament type as differentiation proceeds. Vimentin migrates in SDS/PAGE as a ~57 kDa protein.

PE
R-Phycoerythrin (PE), is part of the BD family of Phycobiliprotein dyes. This fluorochrome is a multimeric fluorescent phycobiliprotein with excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 496 nm and 566 nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 576 nm. PE is designed to be excited by the Blue (488 nm), Green (532 nm) and Yellow-Green (561 nm) lasers and detected using an optical filter centered near 575 nm (e.g., a 575/26-nm bandpass filter). As PE is excited by multiple lasers, this can result in cross-laser excitation and fluorescence spillover on instruments with various combinations of Blue, Green, and Yellow-Green lasers. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
