Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse Anti-Human CD52
Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse Anti-Human CD52
Flow cytometric analysis of human CD52 expression on human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Whole blood was stained with either Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse IgG3, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 560803; dashed line histogram) or Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse Anti-Human CD52 antibody (Cat. No. 563610; solid line histogram). Erythrocytes were lysed with BD Pharm Lyse™ Lysing Buffer (Cat. No. 555899). The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable lymphocytes. Flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD™ LSR II Flow Cytometer System.

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 to Alexa Fluor® 647 under optimum conditions, and unreacted Alexa Fluor® 647 was removed.

Product Notices

  1. 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).
  2. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
  3. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  4. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  5. The Alexa Fluor®, Pacific Blue™, and Cascade Blue® dye antibody conjugates in this product are sold under license from Molecular Probes, Inc. for research use only, excluding use in combination with microarrays, or as analyte specific reagents. The Alexa Fluor® dyes (except for Alexa Fluor® 430), Pacific Blue™ dye, and Cascade Blue® dye are covered by pending and issued patents.
  6. Alexa Fluor® is a registered trademark of Molecular Probes, Inc., Eugene, OR.
  7. Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for allophycocyanin (APC).
  8. 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.
  9. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.

4C8

The 4C8 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD52 which is also known as Cambridge pathology 1 antigen (CAMPATH-1) or Human epididymis-specific protein 5 (HE5). CD52 is a highly N-glycosylated, 25-29 kDa protein whose C-terminus is glycophosphatidylinositol anchored in the membrane. It is highly expressed on the surface of thymocytes and mature lymphocytes but not on their stem cell precursors. It is also expressed on monocytes, dendritic cells, eosinophils and epithelial cells of the epididymis and seminal vesicles but not on neutrophils, plasma cells, platelets or erythrocytes. Although its functional role is not well characterized, the CD52 antigen serves as an exquisitely sensitive target antigen for antibody and complement-mediated lysis of CD52-positive cells. Anti-CD52 antibodies are being used clinically to remove lymphocytes from transplanted bone marrow cell preparations and in the treatment of some malignant diseases.

Alexa Fluor™ 647
Alexa Fluor™ 647 Dye is part of the BD red family of dyes. This is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 653-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 669-nm. Alexa Fluor 647 is designed to be excited by the Red laser (627-640 nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 520-nm (e.g., a 660/20 nm bandpass filter). Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
