BD Pharmingen™ Rat T/B/NK Cell Cocktail
(RUO)
Description
The Rat T/B/NK Cocktail is a three-color reagent cocktail designed to identify rat T, B, and NK lymphocyte populations by direct immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. The monoclonal antibody clone 1F4 has been reported to react with the T-cell receptor-associated CD3 cell-surface antigen found on thymocytes and peripheral T lymphocytes. The monoclonal antibody clone OX-33 has been reported to react with CD45RA found only on B lymphocytes. The monoclonal antibody clone 10/78 has been reported to react with NKR-P1A (CD161a), 60-kDa homodimer expressed on all natural killer (NK) cells and a small subset of T lymphocytes.
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
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- 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.
- This APC-conjugated reagent can be used in any flow cytometer equipped with a dye, HeNe, or red diode laser.
