Alexa Fluor™ 488 Biosimilar Anti-Human TNF
Two-color flow cytometric analysis of TNF (Adalimumab Biosimilar) expression by stimulated Human peripheral blood lymphocytes.  Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were stimulated for 5 hours with Phorbol 12-Myristate 13-Acetate (Sigma P-8139; 50 ng/ml final concentration) and Ionomycin (Sigma I-0634; 1 μg/ml final concentration) in the presence of BD GolgiStop™ Protein Transport Inhibitor (containing Monensin) [Cat. No. 554724]. The cells were harvested, washed with BD Pharmingen™ Stain Buffer (FBS) [Cat. No. 554656] and fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655) followed by washing and permeabilization using BD Perm/Wash™ Buffer (Cat. No. 554723).          The permeabilized cells were then stained with either Alexa Fluor™ 488 IgG1, κ N297A Human Isotype Control (Cat. No. 570390; Left Plot) or Alexa Fluor™ 488 Biosimilar Anti-Human TNF antibody (Cat. No. 571506/571556; Right Plot) in BD Perm/Wash™ Buffer. The bivariate pseudocolor density plot showing the correlated expression of TNF (or Ig Isotype control staining) versus forward light scatter (FSC-A) signals was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact lymphocytes. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD FACSymphony™ A5 SE Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ Software.

Preparation And Storage

The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated to the dye under optimum conditions and unreacted dye was removed. Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

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. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  2. Alexa Fluor® 488 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC).
  3. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
  4. 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.
  5. 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).

Adalimumab297.rMAb

The Adalimumab297.rMAb (also known as, Adalimumab N297A Biosimilar.rMAb) is a research grade recombinant Human IgG1, kappa monoclonal antibody that specifically recognizes Human Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) similarly to therapeutic Adalimumab. Adalimumab297.rMAb was engineered to code for a replacement of asparagine with alanine at position 297 (N297A) of the Human IgG1 heavy chain to reduce potential nonspecific staining caused by Fc receptor binding. Adalimumab is a recombinant Human IgG1 monoclonal anti-Human TNF antibody that is used in the treatment of a wide variety of inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, Crohn's disease, septic shock, and cancer. Therapeutic Adalimumab specifically binds to TNF and neutralizes its biological activity by blocking its binding to its cell surface receptors. Adalimumab does not bind to or inactivate lymphotoxin (Tumor necrosis factor-beta; TNF-β). TNF, also known as TNF alpha (TNF-α) or Cachectin, is an ~26 kDa type II transmembrane protein that is encoded by TNF. TNF is a multifunctional cytokine that plays roles in inflammation, immune system development, innate and adaptive immune responses, apoptosis, lipid metabolism, and necrosis of some tumor cells. TNF is variably produced by a wide variety of activated leucocytes, epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and tumor cells. This mediator is expressed as a noncovalently bound homotrimer that is expressed on the cell surface. Membrane TNF is enzymatically cleaved from the cell surface by tumor necrosis factor alpha converting enzyme (TACE), also known as ADAM17 and CD156b, into a soluble biologically active trimer of the TNF extracellular domains. TNF mediates its biological activities through binding to cell surface TNF Receptor Type 1 (TNFR1, CD120a) and Type 2 (TNFR2, CD120b), which are widely expressed on normal hemopoietic and nonhemopoietic cells as well as tumor cells.

   The Adalimumab297.rMAb is intended for research use only. It is not intended for use in therapeutic or diagnostic procedures for humans or animals.

Alexa Fluor™ 488
Alexa Fluor™ 488 Dye is part of the BD blue family of dyes. This is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 494-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 517-nm. Alexa Fluor™ 488 is designed to be excited by the Blue laser (488 nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 520-nm (e.g., a 530/30-nm bandpass filter). Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
