Recommended Assay Procedures

Other reported applications include immunoprecipitation and intracellular immunofluorescent staining.

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  3. Sodium azide is a reversible inhibitor of oxidative metabolism; therefore, antibody preparations containing this preservative agent must not be used in cell cultures nor injected into animals. Sodium azide may be removed by washing stained cells or plate-bound antibody or dialyzing soluble antibody in sodium azide-free buffer. Since endotoxin may also affect the results of functional studies, we recommend the NA/LE (No Azide/Low Endotoxin) antibody format, if available, for in vitro and in vivo use.
  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.

2G9

The 2G9 monoclonal antibody reacts with the I-Ad and I-Ed MHC class II alloantigens.  It also reacts with transfectants expressing I-Eb and I-Ek and with cells from mice of the H-2p and H-2q haplotypes.  This antibody is non-reactive with cells from SJL (H-2s) and NOD (H-2g7) mice.  Flow cytometric analysis indicates that the 2G9 and M5/114.15.2 monoclonal antibodies have comparable reactivity on cells from mice with I-Ab, I-Ad, I-Aq, I-Ed, and I-Ek alloantigens.

Purified
Tissue culture supernatant is purified by either protein A/G or affinity purification methods. Both methods yield antibody in solution that is free of most other soluble proteins, lipids, etc. This format provides pure antibody that is suitable for a number of downstream applications including: secondary labeling for flow cytometry or microscopy, ELISA, Western blot, etc.
