BB515 Rat Anti-Mouse CX3CR1
BB515 Rat Anti-Mouse CX3CR1
Multicolor flow cytometric analysis of CX3CR1 expression on mouse splenocytes. C57BL/6 mouse splenocytes were preincubated with Purified Rat Anti-Mouse CD16/CD32 antibody (Mouse BD Fc Block™) (Cat. No. 553141/553142), then stained with APC Rat Anti-Mouse CD11b (Cat. No. 553312/561690) and either BD Horizon™ BB515 Rat IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 564418; Left Plot) or BD Horizon™ BB515 Rat Anti-Mouse CX3CR1 antibody (Cat. No. 567809; Right Plot) at 0.5 μg/test. 7-AAD (7-Amino-Actinomycin D) Solution (Cat. No. 559925) was added to cells right before analysis. Bivariate pseudocolor density plots showing the correlated expression of CX3CR1 versus CD11b (or Ig Isotype control staining) were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable (7-AAD-negative) cells. Flow cytometry and data analysis was performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ X-20 Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software. Data shown on this Technical Data Sheet are not lot specific.

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 to the dye under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free dye were removed.

Recommended Assay Procedures

BD® CompBeads can be used as surrogates to assess fluorescence spillover (Compensation).  When fluorochrome conjugated antibodies are bound to 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 CompBead to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.

For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer should be used anytime BD Horizon Brilliant™ dyes are used in a multicolor flow cytometry panel.  Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation.  The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. When BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer is used in in the multicolor panel, it should also be used in the corresponding compensation controls for all dyes to achieve the most accurate compensation. For the most accurate compensation, compensation controls created with either cells or beads should be exposed to BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer for the same length of time as the corresponding multicolor panel. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794/566349) or the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer Plus (Cat. No. 566385).

For optimal results, it is recommended to perform 2 washes after staining with antibodies. Cells may be prepared, stained with antibodies and washed twice with wash buffer per established protocols for immunofluorescence staining, prior to acquisition on a flow cytometer. Performing fewer than the recommended wash steps may lead to increased spread of the negative population.

Z8-50

The Z8-50.23 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes the mouse CX3C chemokine receptor 1 (CX3CR1), which is also known as Fractalkine receptor, G protein-coupled receptor 13 (GPR13), or GPRV28 (V28). CX3CR1 is an ~40 kDa, seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor that is expressed on monocytes, activated macrophages, NK cells, a subset of memory T cells, dendritic cells (DC), and mast cells. CX3CR1 is a receptor for the CX3C chemokine, CX3CL1, which is also known as fractalkine or neurotactin. CX3CL1 is expressed on activated endothelial cells, neurons, and astrocytes. CX3CR1 plays a role in leucocyte adhesion and extravasation from blood vessels during inflammation.

BB515
The BD Horizon Brilliant™ Blue 515 (BB515) dye is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Blue family of dyes. This dye is a polymer fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 490-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) of 515-nm. Driven by BD innovation, BB515 is designed to be excited by the blue laser (488-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 520-nm (e.g., 530/30-nm). BB515 reagents are significantly brighter than equivalent FITC or Alexa Fluor™ 488 reagents with less spillover into the PE detector. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
