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 that minimize unconjugated dye and antibody.

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 cells and BD® CompBeads 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).

Product Notices

  1. The production process underwent stringent testing and validation to assure that it generates a high-quality conjugate with consistent performance and specific binding activity. However, verification testing has not been performed on all conjugate lots.
  2. Researchers should determine the optimal concentration of this reagent for their individual applications.
  3. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  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.

6F7/BTLA

The 6F7 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes CD272 which is also known as B- and T-lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA) and is exclusively expressed on lymphoid cells. CD272 (BTLA) is a type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein that is encoded by Btla (B and T lymphocyte associated). CD272 (BTLA) contains a V-type Ig-like domain in its extracellular region followed by a transmembrane sequence, and a cytoplasmic domain with three tyrosine-based motifs, two immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIM) and a Grb-2 recognition consensus sequence. The existence of three distinct BTLA alleles has been reported which encode molecules with different Ig domain structure and expression patterns on lymphoid cell subsets amongst different mouse strains. For example, whereas C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice both variably express CD272 (BTLA) on developing and mature T and B lymphocytes and dendritic cells (DC), C57BL/6 mice, but not BALB/c mice, also express CD272 (BTLA) on NK cells and macrophages. CD272 (BTLA) expression is upregulated by activated T cells including Th1, Th2, and anergic T cells. Herpesvirus entry mediator (HVEM), also known as CD270 and LIGHT-R, has been identified as a ligand for CD272 (BTLA). The crosslinking of CD272 (BTLA) by HVEM inhibits T-cell proliferation and cytokine production. CD272 (BTLA) is structurally like other coinhibitory receptors including CD152/CTLA-4 and CD279/PD-1. Although these coinhibitory receptors and their ligands maintain immunological homeostasis and self-tolerance, they may also serve as immune checkpoint molecules that inhibit adaptive immune responses against tumors and chronic infections.

BV480
The BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ 480 (BV480) Dye is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. This polymer-technology fluorochrome has an excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 440-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) of 479-nm. Driven by BD innovation, BV480 is designed to be excited by the violet laser (405-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 480-nm (e.g., a 525/50 bandpass filter). The increased fluorescence intensity of BV480 and narrower emission spectra, make it a good alternative for BV510 or V500. Due to its excitation profile, BV480 will also has less cross-laser excitation with the UV laser, resulting in less spillover into UV channels compared to BV510. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
