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).
The BAH-1 monoclonal antibody was raised against human megakaryocytic cells. It was originally proposed that clone BAH-1 was specific for human CD110, also known as c-Mpl or TPO-R. Data has emerged to suggest that BAH-1 antibody may not recognize CD110. However, there is strong evidence that it recognizes an antigen that is highly expressed on human Megakaryocyte-Erythroid Progenitor (MEP) cells. In combination with CD71, BAH-1 expression has been used to distinguish subsets of Hematopoietic Stem Cells and Myeloid Progenitors in human fetal liver, cord blood, and adult bone marrow. BAH-1 antibody can induce megakaryocytopoiesis of both mouse and human bone marrow cells in vitro.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV786 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 786-nm. BD Horizon BV786 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in a filter used to detect Cy™7-like dyes (eg, 780/60-nm filter).
