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 186107 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes the Retinoic acid early inducible 1 (Rae-1) family of glycoproteins which is also known as retinoic acid early transcript 1. This family includes Rae-1α, β, δ, ε and γ, which are encoded by Raet1a, Raet1b, Raet1d, Raet1e, and Raet1c, respectively. Although expressed by some cells during mouse embryonic development, expression of these highly homologous membrane proteins is either low or absent on cells within adult tissues. These glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked proteins are structurally related to MHC class I molecules and contain alpha 1 and 2 domains. The Rae-1 family of glycoproteins serve as ligands for CD314 (NKG2D) which functions as an activating receptor expressed on some cytotoxic T cells and NK cells. Stress-induced Rae-1 proteins are expressed on tumor cells and might play a role in tumor rejection.
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.
