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 cell and BD® CompBeads to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.
Product Notices
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
- This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for allophycocyanin (APC).
- 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.
- For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.

Companion Products
Reacts with myeloperoxidase (MPO), a hemoprotein of 140 kDa, composed of two heavy subunits of 52 kDa and two light chains of 15 kDa. MPO is stored in primary azurophilic granules of neutrophils and plays a major role in the bactericidal activity of neutrophils during phagocytosis. It catalyzes the generation of hypochlorous acid, a powerful oxidant. 1B10 antibody detects MPO in neutrophils, monocytes and HL-60 cells. This reagent is suitable for immunohistochemical staining of acetone-fixed, frozen tissue section, or formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections with TUF pretreatment, or zinc-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections with no pretreatment.
