Two-color flow cytometric analysis of GM-CSF expression in stimulated mouse T cells. Mouse splenic CD4+ T cells were cultured (2 days) with plate-bound Purified NA/LE Hamster Anti-Mouse CD3e (Cat. No. 553057; 10 μg/ml for coating) and soluble Purified NA/LE Hamster Anti-Mouse CD28 (Cat. No. 553294; 2 μg/ml) antibodies with Recombinant Mouse IL-2 (Cat. No. 550069; 10 ng/ml) and Mouse IL-4 (Cat. No. 550067; 25 ng/ml). The cells were subsequently cultured (3 days) with Recombinant IL-2 and IL-4. The cells were then stimulated with PMA (Sigma Cat. No. P-8139) and Ionomycin (Sigma Cat. No. I-0634) in the presence of BD GolgiStop™ Protein Transport Inhibitor (containing Monensin) (Cat. No. 554724) for 6 hours. The cells were harvested, washed, and fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655). The cells were then washed and stained in BD Perm/Wash™ Buffer (Cat. No. 554723) with APC Rat Anti-Mouse CD4 antibody (Cat. No. 553051/561091) and either BD Horizon™ BV421 Rat IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 562602; Left Panel) or BD Horizon BV421 Rat Anti-Mouse GM-CSF antibody (Cat. No. 564747; Right Panel). Two-color flow cytometric dot plots showing correlated expression of GM-CSF (or Ig Isotype control staining) versus CD4 were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact stimulated lymphocytes. Flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD™ LSR II Flow Cytometer System.

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
MP1-22E9
The MP1-22E9 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to mouse Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF). The immunogen used to generate the MP1-22E9 hybridoma was yeast-expressed recombinant mouse GM-CSF. This is a neutralizing antibody.
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.
