Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer should be used anytime two or more BD Horizon Brilliant dyes (including BD OptiBuild Brilliant reagents) are used in the same experiment. Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation. The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794).
The DT-9 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA-C), a polymorphic major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antigen. HLA-C is a heterodimer comprised of the HLA-C alpha chain, a ~45 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein, and a ~12 kDa Beta-2 (β2)-microglobulin light chain. HLA-C is expressed on nearly all cells, and plays a role in the antigen-specific, MHC-restricted presentation of small peptides to CD8+ T cells in the generation of immunity or tolerance. HLA-C may also bind to regulatory MHC class I antigen-selective receptors expressed by CD8+ T cells and natural killer (NK) cells. The DT-9 antibody also recognizes some rare HLA-A and HLA-B allotypes and the nonclassical HLA-E molecule.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV805 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BUV395 with an Ex Max of 348 nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 805 nm. BD Horizon Brilliant BUV805 can be excited by the ultraviolet laser (355 nm) and detected with a 820/60 filter and a 770LP.
