Two-color flow cytometric analysis of IgG3 expression on human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were washed and cultured in complete tissue culture medium overnight to minimize nonspecific immunofluorescent staining. The cells were harvested and stained with APC Mouse anti-Human CD19 antibody (Cat. No. 555415) and with either PE Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 349043; Left Plot) or PE Mouse Anti-Human IgG3 antibody (Cat. No. 568296; Right Plot). The bivariate pseudocolor density plot showing the correlated expression of cell surface IgG3 (or Ig isotype control staining) versus CD19 was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable lymphocytes. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ X-20 Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software.

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.

- 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.
- Please refer to http://regdocs.bd.com to access safety data sheets (SDS).
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- 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).
Companion Products
The HP6050 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes the subclass of human Immunoglobulin G (IgG) known as IgG3. Human IgG3 is the third most abundant of the four subclasses of IgG (IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4) named in order of their relative serum concentrations. IgG3 is comprised of two identical heavy chains encoded by IGHG3, and two light chains, either Igκ or Igλ, linked by disulfide bonds. The HP6050 antibody binds to the hinge region of the IgG3 heavy chain and does not crossreact with other immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) subclasses. IgG3 is normally expressed by plasmablasts, plasma cells, and memory (IgG3 class-switched) B cells as well as by some myeloma or plasmacytoma cells. HP6050 binds to soluble human IgG3, cytophilic IgG3 attached to Fc receptor-positive cells through its Fc region, or human IgG3 antibodies specifically bound to antigens. IgG3 can cross the placenta and diffuse throughout extravascular fluids throughout the body. Human IgG3 serves multiple functions with the transmembrane form serving as an antigen receptor for B lymphocytes and secreted soluble forms participating in various effector functions. The latter include antibody-dependent neutralization of toxins or infection by microbes, opsonization for phagocytosis, efficient complement fixation, and cell-mediated cytotoxicity.
