FITC Rat IgG1, κ Isotype Control
FITC Rat IgG1, κ Isotype Control
Expression of IL-6 by stimulated CD14+ human monocytes. Human PBMC were stimulated for 6 hours with LPS (100 ng/ml final concentration) in the presence of GolgiStop™ (2 µM final concentration; Cat. No. 554724). The PBMC were harvested, stained with PE-mouse anti-human CD14 monoclonal antibody (PE-M5E2, Cat. No. 555398), fixed, permeabilized, and subsequently stained with either 0.25 µg of FITC-Rat IgG1 isotype control immunoglobulin (FITC-R3-34; Cat. No. 554684; middle panel) or with 0.25 µg of FITC-rat anti-human IL-6 antibody (FITC-MQ2-13A5; Cat. No. 554544; right panel), following Pharmingen's staining protocol. Left panel portrays autofluorescence detected by the FL1 PMT versus CD14-PE staining. The data reflect gating on monocytes, based on forward and side scattered light signals. To demonstrate specificity of staining, the binding by FITC-MQ2-13A5 antibody was blocked by each of the following: 1) preincubation of the fluorochrome-conjugated antibody with recombinant human IL-6 (Cat. No. 550071; data not shown) and by 2) preincubation of the fixed/permeabilized cells with unlabeled MQ2-13A5 antibody (Cat. No. 554542; data not shown) prior to staining. The quadrant markers for the bivariate dot plots were set based on the autofluorescence controls and verified using the ligand blocking and unlabeled antibody blocking specificity controls.

The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with FITC under optimum conditions, and unreacted FITC was removed. Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

推荐的实验流程

Recommended Assay Procedure:

The FITC-, PE- and APC-conjugated R3-34 immunoglobulins (Cat. No. 554684; 554685; 554686) are suitable rat IgG1 isotype controls for assessing the level of background staining on paraformaldehyde-fixed/saponin-permeabilized mouse and human cells for flow cytometric analysis. Use at comparable concentrations to antibody of interest (e.g., ≤ 0.5 µg antibody/1 million cells (see image, right panel). For specific methodology, see online protocols or chapter 4 on intracellular staining in Techniques for Immune Function Analysis Application Handbook 1st Edition, both of which are located at our website at www.bdbiosciences.com.  The intracellular cytokine staining technique and use of blocking controls are described in detail by C. Prussin and D. Metcalfe.

  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. 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.

R3-34

Following immunization of a rat with mouse immunoglobulin (Ig), the Ig from the R3-34 hybridoma was identified as a non-reactive clone. The R3-34 immunoglobulin was selected as an Ig isotype control following screening for low background staining on a variety of mouse and human cells and tissues.

This antibody is routinely tested by flow cytometric analysis. Other applications were tested at BD Biosciences Pharmingen during antibody development only or reported in the literature.

FITC
Fluorescein (FITC) is part of the BD blue family of dyes. This is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 494-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 518-nm. FITC is designed to be excited by the Blue laser (488-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 520 nm (e.g., a 530/30-nm bandpass filter). Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
