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 BV510 under optimal conditions that minimize unconjugated dye and antibody.

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

  1. This antibody was developed for use in flow cytometry.
  2. 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.
  3. Researchers should determine the optimal concentration of this reagent for their individual applications.
  4. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  5. 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.

MBC 78.2

The MBC 78.2 monoclonal antibody recognizes CD31 which is also known as, Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule (PECAM-1), platelet GPIIa, or EndoCAM. CD31 is a ~130 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the Ig gene superfamily. CD31 is comprised of an extracellular region with six IgC-like domains, a transmembrane region, and a cytoplasmic domain that contains two immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIMs).  The MBC 78.2 antibody specifically binds to an epitope located on membrane-proximal, extracellular Ig-like domain 6 of CD31. This epitope remains expressed by activated T cells after enzymatic cleavage and shedding of a soluble extracellular CD31 fragment comprised of Ig-like domains 1 to 5 from cells. In contrast to the MBC 78.2 antibody, the WM59 monoclonal antibody reportedly binds to the extracellular Ig-like domain 2 of CD31. WM59 can thus bind to cells that express intact CD31 but not to cells that express a truncated form CD31 that lacks at least the membrane distal Ig-like domains 1 and 2 of CD31. CD31 has wide tissue distribution and is expressed on platelets, monocytes, granulocytes, some T cell subsets, and at high levels on endothelial cells. This cell adhesion molecule has been implicated in a number of cellular phenomena, including vascular wound healing. angiogenesis, transendothelial migration of leucocytes, and the regulation of T cell responses.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV510 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. With an Ex Max of 405-nm and Em Max at 510-nm, BD Horizon BV510 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the BD Horizon V500 (525/50-nm) filter set. BD Horizon BV510 conjugates are useful for the detection of dim markers off the violet laser.

BV510
The BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ 510 (BV510) Dye is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. This polymer-technology based dye with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 327-nm / 405-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 512-nm. BV510, driven by BD innovation, is designed to be excited by the violet laser (405-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 510-nm (e.g., a 525/50 bandpass filter). The dye can be excited by the UV (355-nm) laser resulting in cross-laser excitation and spillover. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
