Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
Put all BD® AbSeq Reagents to be pooled into a Latch Rack for 500 µL Tubes (Thermo Fisher Scientific Cat. No. 4900). Arrange the tubes so that they can be easily uncapped and re-capped with an 8-Channel Screw Cap Tube Capper (Thermo Fisher Scientific Cat. No. 4105MAT) and the reagents aliquoted with a multi-channel pipette.
BD® AbSeq tubes should be centrifuged for ≥ 30 seconds at 400 × g to ensure removal of any content in the cap/tube threads prior to the first opening.
Product Notices
- This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended volume per test. Typical use is 2 µl for 1 × 10^6 cells in a 200-µl staining reaction.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- 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 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.

The monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes CD33, a human myelomonocytic antigen which is also known as Sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin 3 (Siglec-3 or SIGLEC3). CD33 is a 67 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the Ig supergene family. The CD33 antigen is present on monocytes (bright) and granulocytes (dim). Granulocytes can be further subdivided into neutrophil, eosinophil, and basophil populations based on CD33 staining in combination with other cell-surface antigens. The CD33 antigen is also found on CFU-Mix, CFU-GM, CFU-Meg, a portion of BFU-E, myeloblasts, promyelocytes, myelocytes, and metamyelocytes, but not on earlier precursors. The CD33 antigen is expressed on blast cells in greater than 85% of acute myeloid leukemias (AML), and it can be aberrantly expressed in acute lymphoblastic leukemias (ALL). Normal lymphocytes, platelets, and erythrocytes do not express the CD33 antigen. CD33 can reportedly function as a sialic acid-dependent cell adhesion molecule and this function can be modulated by endogenous sialoglycoconjugates when CD33 is expressed on the membrane.
