Preparation And Storage
Product Notices
- 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).
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
- 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.
- BD Horizon V450 has a maximum absorption of 406 nm and maximum emission of 450 nm. Before staining with this reagent, please confirm that your flow cytometer is capable of exciting the fluorochrome and discriminating the resulting fluorescence.

The G10F5 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD66b, also known as Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 8 (CEACAM8). CD66b is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) linked protein with a molecular weight of 100 kDa expressed on granulocytes. This molecule was previously clustered as CD67 in the Fourth Human Leucocyte Differentiation Antigen (HLDA) Workshop and renamed CD66b in the Fifth HLDA Workshop. CD66b is a member of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)-like glycoprotein family present on granulocytes and referred to as non-specific crossreacting antigens (NCA). Granulocyte activation induced with soluble stimulators (calcium ionophore, phorbol myristate acetate, N-formylmethionyl- leucyl-phenylalanine) results in release and increased expression of NCA. Findings suggest that these molecules may play a role in phagocytosis, chemotaxis and adherence.
The antibody is conjugated to BD Horizon™ V450, which has been developed for use in multicolor flow cytometry experiments and is available exclusively from BD Biosciences. It is excited by the Violet laser Ex max of 406 nm and has an Em Max at 450 nm. Conjugates with BD Horizon™ V450 can be used in place of Pacific Blue™ conjugates.
