Preparation and Storage
推奨アッセイ手順
BD™ CompBeads can be used as surrogates to assess fluorescence spillover (Compensation). When fluorochrome conjugated antibodies are bound to 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 CompBead to ensure that BD Comp beads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.
For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer should be used anytime two or more BD Horizon Brilliant dyes are used in the same experiment. Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation. The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794/566349) or the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer Plus (Cat. No. 566385).

The ACK2 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD117, which is also known as Proto-oncogene c-Kit (c-kit), Stem Cell Factor Receptor (SCFR), and Mast/stem cell growth factor receptor. This ~145 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein is encoded by Kit (KIT proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase) which belongs to the receptor tyrosine kinase family (RTK) within the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF). CD117 (c-kit) serves as a receptor for c-Kit ligand (aka, stem cell factor or SCF). This receptor is expressed on multipotent hematopoietic stem cells and progenitors committed to myeloid and/or erythroid lineages, and precursors of B and T lymphocytes. CD117 (c-kit)-mediated signaling plays an important role in the activation, growth, proliferation, differentiation, and survival of cells in sustaining hematopoiesis. It is also involved in the development of mast cells and melanocytes. The specificity and functional activity of the ACK2 antibody is like that of another CD117 (c-kit)-specific antibody, ACK45. ACK2 is reported to block CD117 (c-kit) signaling in vitro and in vivo.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV711 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 with an Ex Max of 405-nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 711-nm. BD Horizon BV711 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in a filter used to detect Cy™5.5 / Alexa Fluor™ 700-like dyes (eg, 712/20-nm filter). Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there may be moderate spillover into the Alexa Fluor™ 700 and PerCP-Cy5.5 detectors. However, the spillover can be corrected through compensation as with any other dye combination.
