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 CompBead to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.

- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- 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.
- 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).
- This APC-conjugated reagent can be used in any flow cytometer equipped with a dye, HeNe, or red diode laser.

The C9Mab-1 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to Chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 9 (CCR9), which is also known as CD199. CCR9 is an ~42 kDa seven-transmembrane protein in the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) supergene family. It is upregulated by CD4+CD8+ double-positive thymocytes, then downregulated in committed CD4+ or CD8+ single-positive thymocytes. CCR9 is also expressed on small intestinal B cells, subsets of memory CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells, and dendritic cells. CCR9 binds CCL25, which is also known as thymus-expressed chemokine (TECK) or small inducible chemokine 25 (Scya25). CCL25 is highly expressed in the thymic cortex and small intestinal epithelium. CCR9 is involved in T cell development and gut-associated immune functions via lymphocyte recruitment to the gastrointestinal tract.
