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.

Companion Products
The 15E2 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD369 which is also known as CLEC7A (C-type lectin domain family 7 member A), Dectin-1 (Dendritic cell-associated C-type lectin 1), or BGR (Beta-glucan receptor). CD369 is a type II transmembrane C-type lectin that contains a C-terminal stalk with a carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) in the extracellular domain, a transmembrane segment, and an ITAM containing cytoplasmic tail. This protein is highly expressed on dendritic cells. It is also expressed on B cells, monocytes, eosinophils, mast cells, macrophages, endothelial cells, and is lowly expressed on some subsets of T cells. CD369 binds to beta-glucan polymers and functions as a pattern recognition receptor in innate immune response to fungal and bacterial pathogens. The 15E2 antibody can reportedly stimulate dendritic cells to costimulate immune responses.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV395 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes. This dye has been exclusively developed by BD Biosciences to have minimal spillover into other detectors, making it an optimal choice for multicolor flow cytometry. With an Ex Max at 348 nm and an Em Max at 395 nm, BD Horizon BUV395 can be excited with a 355 nm laser and detected with a 379/28 filter.
