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 B4B6 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD172b, which is also known as Signal regulatory protein β (SIRPβ), or SIRP-beta-1 (SIRPB1/SIRPβ1). CD172b is a 50 kDa, type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the SIRP family within the Ig gene superfamily. CD172b has a transmembrane domain that contains a positively-charged lysine residue. This allows CD172b to interact with a transmembrane signaling adaptor protein, DAP12/KARAP, and transduce stimulatory signals into cells. CD172b is expressed on monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and granulocytes. It is not expressed on CD34+ cells. CD172b/SIRPβ and its counterpart, CD172a/SIRPα, appear to have complementary roles in signal regulation and may work together in tuning cellular responses to certain ligands. This clone has been reported not to cross-react with CD172a.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV650 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 with an Ex Max of 405-nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 650-nm. BD Horizon BV650 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in a filter used to detect APC-like dyes (eg, 660/20-nm filter). Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there will be spillover into the APC and Alexa Fluor® 700 detectors. However, the spillover can be corrected through compensation as with any other dye combination.
