Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
BD® CompBeads can be used as surrogates to assess fluorescence spillover (compensation). When fluorochrome conjugated antibodies are bound to BD® CompBeads, they have spectral properties very similar to cells. However, for some fluorochromes there can be small differences in spectral emissions compared to cells, resulting in spillover values that differ when compared to biological controls. It is strongly recommended that when using a reagent for the first time, users compare the spillover on cells and BD® CompBeads to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.

- 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.
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- 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.
- Human donor specific background has been observed in relation to the presence of anti-polyethylene glycol (PEG) antibodies, developed as a result of certain vaccines containing PEG, including some COVID-19 vaccines. We recommend use of BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer in your experiments to help mitigate potential background. For more information visit https://www.bdbiosciences.com/en-us/support/product-notices.
- When using high concentrations of antibody, background binding of this dye to erythroid fragments produced by ammonium chloride-based lysis, such as with BD Pharm Lyse™ Lysing Buffer (Cat. No. 555899), has been observed when the antibody conjugate was present during the lysis procedure. This may cause nonspecific staining of target cells, such as leukocytes, which have bound the resulting erythroid fragments. This background can be mitigated by any of the following: titrating the antibody conjugate to a lower concentration, fixing samples with formaldehyde, or removing erythrocytes before staining (eg, gradient centrifugation or pre-lysis with wash). This background has not been observed when cells were lysed with BD FACS™ Lysing Solution (Cat. No. 349202) after staining.

- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.

- Please observe the following precautions: We recommend that special precautions be taken (such as wrapping vials, tubes, or racks in aluminum foil) to protect exposure of conjugated reagents, including cells stained with those reagents, to any room illumination. Absorption of visible light can significantly affect the emission spectra and quantum yield of tandem fluorochrome conjugates.

The HP-3G10 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes human CD161 which is also known as Natural killer cell surface protein P1A (NKR-P1A or NKRP1A) or C-type lectin domain family 5 member B (CLEC5B). CD161 is expressed on the cell surface as an 80 kDa disulfide-linked homodimeric type II transmembrane glycoprotein. It is encoded by KLRB1 (Killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily B member 1) which belongs to the Ca2+-dependent C-type lectin superfamily. CD161 is expressed on NK cells and on subsets of CD4+ and CD8+ αβ T cells, NKT cells, γδ T cells, CD3+ thymocytes, and fetal liver cells. CD161 is preferentially expressed on memory/effector T cells. CD161 can reportedly inhibit NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity and IFN-γ production. Lectin-like transcript 1 (LLT-1), encoded by CLEC2D (C-type lectin domain family 2 member D), has been described as a ligand for CD161. LLT-1 is expressed on some activated dendritic cells (DC) and B cells.
