      PE Mouse Anti-Human CD63
      71485L_557305_image1.png

      Flow cytometric analysis of CD63 expression on Rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) peripheral blood platelets. Platelets were isolated from fresh whole blood and activated by Thrombin (Sigma-Aldrich, Cat. No.T8885), and then fixed with 2% formaldehyde. After washing, the fixed platelets were stained with either PE Mouse Anti-Human CD63 antibody (Cat. No. 556020/561925; solid line histogram) or with PE Mouse IgG1 , κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 555749; dashed line histogram).The fluorescence histograms were derived from events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of platelets.

      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 R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed.

      Product Notices

      1. 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).
      2. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
      3. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
      4. 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.
      5. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
      6. Species cross-reactivity detected in product development may not have been confirmed on every format and/or application.
      7. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.

      H5C6

      The H5C6 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD63. CD63 is a 53 kDa, type III lysosomal glycoprotein, expressed on activated platelets, monocytes and macrophages. This molecule is also referred to in the literature as LIMP, gp55, melanoma-associated antigen ME491, Pltgp40, LAMP-3 and is a member of the tetraspan transmembrane 4 superfamily (TM4SF). It is widely expressed on surface and in the cytoplasm of various hematopoietic (monocytes, macrophages) and non-hematopoietic (endothelium, fibroblasts, osteoclasts, smooth muscle) cells. CD63 plays roles in mediating cellular adhesion and motility.

      Clone H5C6 also crossreacts with thrombin-activated peripheral blood platelets of baboon, and both rhesus and cynomolgus macaque monkeys. The distribution of H5C6+ activated platelets is similar to that observed with activated platelets from peripheral blood of normal human donors.

      PE
      R-Phycoerythrin (PE), is part of the BD family of Phycobiliprotein dyes. This fluorochrome is a multimeric fluorescent phycobiliprotein with excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 496 nm and 566 nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 576 nm. PE is designed to be excited by the Blue (488 nm), Green (532 nm) and Yellow-Green (561 nm) lasers and detected using an optical filter centered near 575 nm (e.g., a 575/26-nm bandpass filter). As PE is excited by multiple lasers, this can result in cross-laser excitation and fluorescence spillover on instruments with various combinations of Blue, Green, and Yellow-Green lasers. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
