BV421 Hamster Anti-Mouse CD11c
BV421 Hamster Anti-Mouse CD11c
Flow cytometric analysis of CD11c expression on mouse dendritic cells. BALB/c mouse splenocytes were cultured with recombinant mouse GM-CSF (Cat. No.554586; 5 ng/ml) overnight. The cells were then harvested and stained either with a BD Horizon™ BV421 Hamster IgG1, λ1 Isotype Control (Cat. No. 562919; dashed line histogram) or with the BD Horizon™ BV421 Hamster anti-Mouse CD11c antibody (Cat. No. 562782; solid line histogram). The fluorescence histograms were derived from events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable dendritic cells. Flow cytometry was performed using a BD™ LSR II Flow Cytometer System. Immunohistofluorescent analysis of CD11c expression by cells within C57BL/6 mouse spleen. A mouse spleen cryosection (5 µm) was fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655), blocked with 5% goat serum and 1% BSA diluted in 1x PBS, and stained with BD Horizon™ BV421 Hamster Anti-Mouse CD11c antibody (Cat. No. 562782, pseudo-colored red), BD Horizon™ BV480 Rat-anti-Mouse CD3 Molecular Complex antibody (Cat. No. 565642, pseudo-colored green), and Alexa Fluor® 647 Rat Anti-Mouse CD45R/B220 antibody (Cat. No. 557683, pseudo-colored blue). Images were captured on a standard epifluorescence. Original magnification, 20x.

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 BD Horizon BV421 under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free BD Horizon BV421 were removed.

Recommended Assay Procedures

For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer should be used anytime BD Horizon Brilliant™ dyes are used in a multicolor flow cytometry panel.  Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation.  The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. When BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer is used in in the multicolor panel, it should also be used in the corresponding compensation controls for all dyes to achieve the most accurate compensation. For the most accurate compensation, compensation controls created with either cells or beads should be exposed to BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer for the same length of time as the corresponding multicolor panel. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794/566349) or the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer Plus (Cat. No. 566385).

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  3. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
  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.

HL3

The HL3 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the integrin αx chain of gp150, 95 (CD11c/CD18). CD11c is expressed on dendritic cells, CD4- CD8+ intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) and some NK cells. It is upregulated on IEL and lymph-node T cells following in vivo activation. Cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage have been reported to express low levels of CD11c. CD11c plays a role in binding of iC3b.

BV421
The BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ 421 (BV421) Dye is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. This polymer-technology based dye has an excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 407-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 423-nm. Driven by BD innovation, BV421 is designed to be excited by the violet laser (405-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 420-nm (e.g., a 431/28-nm or 450/50-nm bandpass filter). BV421 is an ideal alternative for V450 as it is approximately ten times brighter with less spillover into the BV510/V500 detector. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
