Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer should be used anytime BD Horizon Brilliant™ dyes are used in a multicolor flow cytometry panel. Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation. The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. When BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer is used in in the multicolor panel, it should also be used in the corresponding compensation controls for all dyes to achieve the most accurate compensation. For the most accurate compensation, compensation controls created with either cells or beads should be exposed to BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer for the same length of time as the corresponding multicolor panel. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794/566349) or the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer Plus (Cat. No. 566385).

The OX-39 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the α chain of the IL-2 Receptor (IL-2Rα, IL2RA) on activated T cells, T regulatory cells, and thymic and splenic dendritic cells. CD25 has also been detected on rat intestinal epithelial cells. It has been reported that OX-39 mAb weakly blocks binding of IL-2 to T-cell blasts and that it blocks IL-2 stimulated epithelial cell migration in an in vitro model of wound healing.
