BV421 Mouse Anti-Rat CD3

BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse Anti-Rat CD3

Name: BV421 Mouse Anti-Rat CD3
Brand: BD Horizon™
SKU: 563948

Clone 1F4

(RUO)

Two-color flow cytometric analysis of CD3 expression on rat splenocytes. Rat splenic leucocytes were stained with PE Mouse Anti-Rat CD5 antibody (Cat. No. 554851) and either BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse IgM, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 562704; Left Panel) or BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse Anti-Rat CD3 antibody (Cat. No. 563948; Right Panel). The two-color flow cytometric dot plot shows the correlated expression patterns of CD3 (or Ig Isotype control staining) versus CD5 for gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable splenic leucocytes.

Product Details

Brand: BD Horizon™

Reactivity: Rat (QC Testing)

Isotype: Mouse BALB/c IgM, κ

Immunogen: F344 rat splenic T cells stimulated with PMA plus A23187

Application: Flow cytometry (Routinely Tested)

Concentration: 0.2 mg/ml

RRID: AB_2738503

Storage Buffer: Aqueous buffered solution containing BSA and ≤0.09% sodium azide.

Regulatory Status: RUO

Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with BD Horizon BV421 under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free BD Horizon BV421 were removed.

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.
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.

Antibody Details

1F4

The 1F4 antibody reacts with the T-cell receptor-associated CD3 cell-surface antigen found on thymocytes, peripheral T lymphocytes, and dendritic epidermal T cells. In vitro, immobilized 1F4 mAb induces T-cell proliferation, and soluble mAb synergizes with PMA for T-cell activation. Pre-incubation of splenocytes with mAb 1F4 blocks staining with mAb G4.18 (Cat. No. 559974/554830).

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV421 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. With an Ex Max of 407-nm and Em Max at 421-nm, BD Horizon BV421 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the standard Pacific Blue™ filter set (eg, 450/50-nm filter). BD Horizon BV421 conjugates are very bright, often exhibiting a 10 fold improvement in brightness compared to Pacific Blue™ conjugates.

Format Details

BV421

The BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ 421 (BV421) Dye is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. This polymer-technology based dye has an excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 407-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 423-nm. Driven by BD innovation, BV421 is designed to be excited by the violet laser (405-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 420-nm (e.g., a 431/28-nm or 450/50-nm bandpass filter). BV421 is an ideal alternative for V450 as it is approximately ten times brighter with less spillover into the BV510/V500 detector. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.

Format: BV421
