PE Mouse Anti-Human Disialoganglioside GD2

Consider BD Horizon RealYellow™ 586 (RY586) Reagents, a bright and clean fluorochrome alternative to PE off the yellow-green laser. RY586 can be used alongside PE on spectral cytometers. More Info

BD Pharmingen™ PE Mouse Anti-Human Disialoganglioside GD2

Name: PE Mouse Anti-Human Disialoganglioside GD2
Brand: BD Pharmingen™
SKU: 562100

Clone 14.G2a

(RUO)

Flow cytometric analysis of human disialoganglioside GD2 expression on human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) or M21 cell lines. Human mesenchymal stem cells (Lonza, Cat. No. PT-2501, left panel) or M21 cells (right panel) were stained with PE Mouse Anti-Human Disialoganglioside GD2 (Cat. No. 562100; solid line histogram) or with a PE Mouse IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 555574/553457; dashed line histogram). The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable cells. Flow cytometry was performed using a BD™ LSR II Flow Cytometry System.

Product Details

Brand: BD Pharmingen™

Reactivity: Human (QC Testing)

Isotype: Mouse BALB/c IgG2a

Immunogen: LAN-1 human neuroblastoma cells

Application: Flow cytometry (Routinely Tested)

Vol. Per Test: 5 µl

RRID: AB_11154036

Storage Buffer: Aqueous buffered solution containing BSA and ≤0.09% sodium azide.

Regulatory Status: RUO

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 with R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed.

Product Notices

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).
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.
An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

Antibody Details

14.G2a

Gangliosides are sialic-acid bearing glycolipids that are expressed on the surface of all mammalian cells, and are likely involved in mediating cell-substratum interactions. They are important target antigens for antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) of human melanoma and neuroblastoma cells. Human melanoma cells produce gangliosides, designated as GD2 and GD3 which are deposited in the subtratum-attached material, and may play a significant role in the melanoma metastatic phenotype. Clone 14.G2a specifically reacts with human and mouse GD2 ganglioside. LAN-1 human neuroblastoma cells were used as immunogen. Clone 14.G2a is an isotype switch variant selected from the parental IgG3-producing hybridoma 14.18 and has identical reactivity as the parental antibody. Clone 14.G2a is routinely tested by flow cytometry using M21 human melanoma cells.

Format Details

R-Phycoerythrin (PE), is part of the BD family of Phycobiliprotein dyes. This fluorochrome is a multimeric fluorescent phycobiliprotein with excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 496 nm and 566 nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 576 nm. PE is designed to be excited by the Blue (488 nm), Green (532 nm) and Yellow-Green (561 nm) lasers and detected using an optical filter centered near 575 nm (e.g., a 575/26-nm bandpass filter). As PE is excited by multiple lasers, this can result in cross-laser excitation and fluorescence spillover on instruments with various combinations of Blue, Green, and Yellow-Green lasers. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.

Format: PE

Excitation Source: Yellow-Green 488 nm, 532 nm, 561 nm

Excitation Max: 496 nm, 566 nm
