Two-color flow cytometric analysis of CD326 expression on mouse thymocytes and splenic T lymphocytes. BALB/c mouse thymocytes and splenic leucocytes were preincubated with Purified Rat Anti-Mouse CD16/CD32 antibody (Mouse BD Fc Block™) (Cat. No. 553141/553142) and stained with BD Horizon™ RY586 Rat IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 568130; Left Plot) or BD Horizon™ RY586 Rat Anti-Mouse CD326 antibody (Cat. No. 568126/568127) at 0.5 µg/test. Left Plot: Thymocytes were further stained with BD Horizon™ BV421 Rat Anti-Mouse CD4 (Cat. No. 562891) and FITC Rat Anti-Mouse CD8a (Cat. No. 553031/553030/561966) antibodies. The fluorescence histogram showing CD326 expression (or Ig Isotype control staining) was derived from CD4- and CD8-negative gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable thymocytes. Middle and Right Plots: The splenic leucocytes were further stained with FITC Hamster Anti-Mouse CD3e (Cat. No. 553062/553061/561827) and BD Horizon™ BV421 Rat Anti-Mouse CD25 (Cat. No. 564370/566228) antibodies. Two-color flow cytometric contour plots showing the correlated expression of Ig Isotype control staining (Middle Plot) or CD326 (Right Plot) versus CD3e were derived from CD25+ gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable splenic leucocytes. A small population of CD3+CD25+CD326+ cells were detected (Right Plot), whereas the CD25- T cells do not express detectable levels of CD326 (data not shown). Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software. Data shown on this Technical Data Sheet are not lot specific.

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.

The G8.8 monoclonal antibody recognizes CD326/Ep-CAM (Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule), also known as gp40 in the mouse and by a variety of names (including GA733-2, CO17-1A, and EGP) in the human. In the mouse, Ep-CAM is a 40-42 kDa cell-surface type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on thymic epithelial cells, thymic dendritic cells, immature thymocytes, a small subset of peripheral T lymphocytes, intestinal epithelium, kidney-collecting tubule epithelium, keratinocytes, Langerhans cells and lymph node and splenic dendritic cells. Profiles of Ep-CAM expression on fetal thymocytes and on the CD4[-] CD8[-], CD4[+] CD8[+], CD4[-] CD8[+], and CD4[+] CD8[-] subsets of adult thymocytes have been published. In unrelated studies, mouse Ep-CAM mRNA was detected in tissues containing epithelial cells (kidney, stomach, intestine, lung, and thymus) and in plasma cells and plasmacytomas, but not in heart, muscle, liver, brain, spleen, B lymphomas, or pre-B lymphomas. Ep-CAM is a Ca[2+] independent homophilic adhesion molecule that is proposed to play roles in the development and normal function of epithelial tissues and in the progression of carcinomas.
The BD Horizon RealYellow™ 586 (RY586) Dye is part of the BD family of yellow-green dyes. It is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 565-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 586-nm. Driven by BD innovation, RY586 can be used on both spectral and conventional cytometers and is designed to be excited by the Yellow-Green laser (561-nm) with minimal excitation by the 488-nm Blue laser. For conventional instruments equipped with a Yellow-Green laser (561-nm), RY586 can be used as an alternative to PE and we recommend using an optical filter centered near 586-nm (eg, a 586/15-nm bandpass filter). For spectral instruments equipped with a Yellow-Green laser (561-nm), it can be used in conjunction with PE. Compared to PE, RY586 is similar in brightness, minimal spillover into Blue detectors, and increased spillover into the 610/20-nm (PE-CF594) detector. Please ensure that your instrument configuration (lasers and optical filters) is appropriate for this dye.
