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 172224 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes CD300 antigen-like family member A (CD300a) which is also known as Myeloid-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor 1 (MAIR-1 or MAIR-I), Mast cell-derived paired immunoglobulin-like receptor 1 (Mcpir1), CMRF35-like molecule 8 (CLM-8 or Clm8), Leukocyte mono-Ig-like receptor 1 (Lmir1), or Inhibitory receptor protein 60 (IRp60). CD300a is a single-pass type I membrane protein that is encoded by the Cd300a gene which belongs to the immunoglobulin gene superfamily. The extracellular region of CD300a contains an IgV-type domain whereas its intracellular region has three ITIMs and a non-canonical ITIM. CD300a is expressed on some B cells, NK cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, neutrophils, eosinophils, and mast cells. CD300a functions as an inhibitory receptor that can downregulate the effector functions of the cells it is expressed on.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV650 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 650-nm. BD Horizon BV650 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in a filter used to detect APC-like dyes (eg, 660/20-nm filter). Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there will be spillover into the APC and Alexa Fluor® 700 detectors. However, the spillover can be corrected through compensation as with any other dye combination.
