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.

The 6F12 antibody reacts with a 7-transmembrane-domain protein, which is similar to the F4/80 macrophage antigen of the EGF-TM7 protein family and is encoded by the Emr4 gene. The FIRE protein is expressed on myeloid cells with a denditic cell (DC) developmental potential, including subsets of DC and macrophages in the spleen and lymph nodes, most resident peritoneal macrophages, many peripheral blood monocytes, and a subpopulation of bone-marrow myeloid-cell progenitors. The protein is not detected on peripheral T and B lymphocytes, and it is down-regulated on thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal macrophages and on dendritic cells activated by GM-CSF, IFN-γ, anti-CD40, and LPS. Using soluble biotinylated fusion protein, a FIRE ligand was detected on a mouse IgG+ B lymphoma cell line (A20), but not on myeloid, fibroblast, or T-cell lines, suggesting that the FIRE protein may be involved in immunoregulatory interactions between antigen-presenting cells and B lymphocytes.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV395 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes. This dye has been exclusively developed by BD Biosciences to have minimal spillover into other detectors, making it an optimal choice for multicolor flow cytometry. With an Ex Max at 348 nm and an Em Max at 395 nm, BD Horizon BUV395 can be excited with a 355 nm laser and detected with a 379/28 filter.
