Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer should be used anytime two or more BD Horizon Brilliant dyes (including BD OptiBuild Brilliant reagents) 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).
Product Notices
- This antibody was developed for use in flow cytometry.
- The production process underwent stringent testing and validation to assure that it generates a high-quality conjugate with consistent performance and specific binding activity. However, verification testing has not been performed on all conjugate lots.
- Researchers should determine the optimal concentration of this reagent for their individual applications.
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- 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.

The S35-934 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand receptor 1 (TRAIL-R1/TRAIL Receptor 1). TRAIL-R1 is also known as CD261, Death Receptor 4 (DR4) and APO2. TRAIL-R1 is a type I transmembrane protein that is encoded by TNFRSF10A (tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 10a). It serves as a receptor for TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) which is also known as CD253 and TNFSF10. TRAIL-R1 is expressed by a variety of tumor-derived cell lines. It is generally expressed at very low levels by most leucocytes. When bound by TRAIL, TRAIL-R1 can promote recruitment and subsequent activation of caspase-8, ultimately triggering the activation of effector caspases within cells that lead to apoptosis. Many transformed cell types are susceptible to TRAIL:TRAIL-R1-mediated cell death whereas normal cells are typically resistant.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV737 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BUV395 with an Ex Max of 348-nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 737-nm. BD Horizon Brilliant BUV737 can be excited by the ultraviolet laser (355 nm) and detected with a 740/35 filter. Due to the excitation of the acceptor dye by other laser lines, there may be significant spillover into channels detecting Alexa Fluor® 700-like dyes (eg, 712/20-nm filter).
Due to spectral differences between labeled cells and beads, using BD™ CompBeads can result in incorrect spillover values when used with BD Horizon BUV737 reagents. Therefore, the use of BD CompBeads or BD CompBeads Plus to determine spillover values for these reagents is not recommended. Different BUV737 reagents (eg, CD4 vs. CD45) can have slightly different fluorescence spillover therefore, it may also be necessary to use clone specific compensation controls when using these reagents.
