      Purified Hamster Anti-Mouse TCR β Chain
      Purified Hamster Anti-Mouse TCR β Chain
      αβ TCR expression in spleen and thymus. C57BL/6 splenocytes were simultaneously stained with FITC-conjugated anti-mouse CD4 mAb RM4-5 (Cat. No. 553046/553047, left panels), FITC-conjugated anti-mouse CD8a mAb 53-6.7 (Cat. No. 553030/553031, left panels), and purified H57-597 (bottom left panel) monoclonal antibodies, followed by PE-conjugated anti-hamster IgG (Cat. No. 554056, left panels). C57BL/6 thymocytes were stained with purified mAb H57-597 (bottom right panel), followed by PE-conjugated anti-hamster IgG (Cat. No. 554056, right panels). Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACScan™ flow cytometry system.

      Recommended Assay Procedures

      It has been observed that pre-incubation of thymus cell suspensions at 37°C for 2 to 4 hours prior to staining enhances the ability of anti-CD3e and anti-TCR β chain mAbs to detect that T cell receptor on immature thymocytes.

      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. 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.
      4. 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.

      H57-597

      The H57-597 antibody reacts with a common epitope of the β chain of the T-cell Receptor (TCR) complex on αβ TCR-expressing thymocytes, peripheral T lymphocytes, NK1.1+ thymocytes, and NK-T cells of all mouse strains tested. It does not react with γδ TCR-bearing T cells. In the fetal and adult thymus, the TCR β-chain may form homodimers or pair with the pre-TCR α-chain on the surface of immature thymocytes before TCR α-chain expression. Plate-bound or soluble H57-597 antibody activates αβ TCR-bearing T cells, and plate-bound mAb can induce apoptotic death.

      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.

      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.
