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 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.

8F4H7B7

The 8F4H7B7 antibody reacts with Vδ 6.3/2 T-cell Receptor (TCR)-bearing T lymphocytes.  Originally defined as a member of the Vδ 6 TCR subfamily, it is now proposed that the C57BL-derived Vδ 6.3 is an allelic variant of Vδ 6.2, found in A/J, AKR, BALB/c, C3H/He, and FVB mice.  mAb 8F4H7B7 crossreacts with Vδ 6.4 and possibly Vδ 6.6 in DBA/2 mice, and it also detects a subset of γδ TCR-bearing cells in CBA/J and C57L mice.  It does not recognize Vδ 4, Vδ 5, Vδ 6.1, or Vδ 6.5 TCR.  A subpopulation of thymocytes expressing Vδ 6.3 or Vδ 6.4 TCR (in C57BL/6 or DBA/2 mice, respectively) and low levels of CD90.2 (Thy-1.2) shares functional and phenotypic characteristics with NK-T cells.  Similar δV 6.4 TCRexpressing lymphocytes make up significant proportions of the γδ T-cell populations in the liver and spleen of DBA/2 mice. Furthermore, T lymphocytes bearing Vδ 6.3/2 TCR are found in the skin and intestinal epithelium and may represent a unique T-cell subpopulation with a potential for autoimmune reactivity.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV421 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. With an Ex Max of 407-nm and Em Max at 421-nm, BD Horizon BV421 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the standard Pacific Blue™ filter set (eg, 450/50-nm filter). BD Horizon BV421 conjugates are very bright, often exhibiting a 10 fold improvement in brightness compared to Pacific Blue conjugates.

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.
