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.

Product Notices

  1. Researchers should determine the optimal concentration of this reagent for their individual applications.
  2. 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.
  3. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  4. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  5. 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.

  8. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  9. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.

MECA-367

The MECA-367 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes mucosal vascular addressin MAdCAM-1. In the fetus and neonate, MAdCAM-1 is the predominant vascular addressin on the high endothelial venules (HEV) of peripheral lymph nodes. In adult mice, MAdCAM-1 is preferentially expressed in mucosal lymphoid tissues and lamina propria; it is also expressed on sinus-lining cells in the spleen. MAdCAM-1 expression is upregulated on the HEV of peripheral lymph nodes in adult NOD mice4 and is involved in the development of diabetes and insulitis. Furthermore, there is evidence that IFN-γ can induce MAdCAM-1 expression in non-mucosal sites in adult mice. MAdCAM-1 is a predominant ligand for integrin α4β7, a lymphocyte mucosal homing receptor, and a facultative ligand for CD62L (L-selectin). MECA-367 mAb binds to the first domain of MAdCAM-1 and blocks MAdCAM-1-dependent binding in vitro and lymphocyte homing to Peyer's patch HEV in vivo. Source of the immunogen was endothelial cells from BALB/c mouse mesenteric and peripheral lymph nodes.

RY586
The BD Horizon RealYellow™ 586 (RY586) Dye is part of the BD family of yellow-green dyes. It is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 565-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 586-nm. Driven by BD innovation, RY586 can be used on both spectral and conventional cytometers and is designed to be excited by the Yellow-Green laser (561-nm) with minimal excitation by the 488-nm Blue laser. For conventional instruments equipped with a Yellow-Green laser (561-nm), RY586 can be used as an alternative to PE and we recommend using an optical filter centered near 586-nm (eg, a 586/15-nm bandpass filter). For spectral instruments equipped with a Yellow-Green laser (561-nm), it can be used in conjunction with PE. Compared to PE, RY586 is similar in brightness, minimal spillover into Blue detectors, and increased spillover into the 610/20-nm (PE-CF594) detector. Please ensure that your instrument configuration (lasers and optical filters) is appropriate for this dye.
