Multiparameter flow cytometric analysis of CD326 expression on mouse thymocytes and splenic T lymphocytes. BALB/c mouse thymocytes and splenic leucocytes were separately preincubated with Purified Rat Anti-Mouse CD16/CD32 antibody (Mouse BD Fc Block™) [Cat. No. 553141/553142] and stained with either Alexa Fluor™ 488 Rat IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 557676) or Alexa Fluor™ 488 Rat Anti-Mouse CD326 antibody (Cat. No. 567664) at 1.0 μg/test. Left Plot: Thymocytes were further stained with APC Rat Anti-Mouse CD4 (553051/561091) and BD Horizon™ BUV395 Rat Anti-Mouse CD8a (Cat. No. 563786) antibodies. The CD326 (solid line histogram) and Ig Isotype Control (dashed line histogram) fluorescence histograms were derived from CD4- and CD8-negative gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable thymocytes. Middle and Right Plots: The splenic leucocytes were further stained with BD Horizon™ BUV395 Hamster Anti-Mouse CD3e (Cat. No. 563565/565992) and APC Rat Anti-Mouse CD25 (Cat. No. 557192) antibodies. The bivariate pseudocolor density plot showing the correlated expression of Ig Isotype control staining (Middle Plot) or CD326 (Right Plot) versus CD3e was derived from CD25+ gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable splenic leucocytes. A small population of CD3+CD25+CD326+ cells was detected (Right Plot), whereas the CD25- T cells do not express detectable levels of CD326 (data not shown). Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ X-20 Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software. Data shown on this Technical Data Sheet are not lot specific.

Preparation And Storage
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
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
- Alexa Fluor® 488 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC).
- 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.
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.

The G8.8 monoclonal antibody recognizes CD326/Ep-CAM (Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule), also known as gp40 in the mouse and by a variety of names (including GA733-2, CO17-1A, and EGP) in the human. In the mouse, Ep-CAM is a 40-42 kDa cell-surface type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on thymic epithelial cells, thymic dendritic cells, immature thymocytes, a small subset of peripheral T lymphocytes, intestinal epithelium, kidney-collecting tubule epithelium, keratinocytes, Langerhans cells and lymph node and splenic dendritic cells. Profiles of Ep-CAM expression on fetal thymocytes and on the CD4[-] CD8[-], CD4[+] CD8[+], CD4[-] CD8[+], and CD4[+] CD8[-] subsets of adult thymocytes have been published. In unrelated studies, mouse Ep-CAM mRNA was detected in tissues containing epithelial cells (kidney, stomach, intestine, lung, and thymus) and in plasma cells and plasmacytomas, but not in heart, muscle, liver, brain, spleen, B lymphomas, or pre-B lymphomas. Ep-CAM is a Ca[2+] independent homophilic adhesion molecule that is proposed to play roles in the development and normal function of epithelial tissues and in the progression of carcinomas.
