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

- 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.
- 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 LOM-8.7 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes CD301a which is also known as C-type lectin domain family 10 member A (CLEC10A), Macrophage asialoglycoprotein-binding protein 1 (M-ASGP-BP-1), or Macrophage galactose N-acetyl-galactosamine specific lectin 1 (MGL1). CD301a (MGL1) is an ~42 kDa type II transmembrane glycoprotein that is encoded by Clec10a. It is comprised of an extracellular region with a carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) followed by a transmembrane region and a cytoplasmic tail. CD301a is expressed on a subset of macrophages, conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs). CD301a (MGL1) binds selectively to molecules that contain Lewis X or Lewis A structures. This receptor is involved in the recognition and endocytosis of glycoproteins and plays roles in tissue remodeling, clearance of apoptotic cells, and defense against tumor cells. The ER-MP23 monoclonal antibody recognizes both CD301a (MGL1) and its homolog, CD301b (MGL2) which is encoded by Mgl2.
