Preparation And Storage
Product Notices
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
- 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.
- This APC-conjugated reagent can be used in any flow cytometer equipped with a dye, HeNe, or red diode laser.
- For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.

The MAC320 antibody monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the 270- and 280-kDa isoforms of the SWC6 heterodimer expressed on Null T cells. These cells form a unique population of CD2-, surface Ig-, and thymus-dependent nylon wool-nonadherent peripheral blood lymphocytes found at high frequencies in young pigs. Null T cells are also CD4- and CD8-, and the majority of them express γδ T-cell receptors (TCR). In addition to peripheral blood, MAC320+ leukocytes (CD2- γδ T cells) are found in the thymus, especially in the medulla and in the marginal zone and red pulp of the spleen. They are rare in normal lymph nodes, tonsils, Peyer's patches, bone marrow, and skin. An additional population of MAC320- CD2+ γδ T cells is found in the blood and spleen. The MAC320 antibody does not react with pig erythrocytes, monocytes, or granulocytes, nor with cow, sheep, or human lymphocytes.
