Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer should be used anytime two or more BD Horizon Brilliant dyes (including BD OptiBuild Brilliant reagents) are used in the same experiment. Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation. The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794).
Product Notices
- This antibody was developed for use in flow cytometry.
- The production process underwent stringent testing and validation to assure that it generates a high-quality conjugate with consistent performance and specific binding activity. However, verification testing has not been performed on all conjugate lots.
- Researchers should determine the optimal concentration of this reagent for their individual applications.
- 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.

The 7-239 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to Sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin 1 (Siglec-1), which is also known as Sialoadhesin (SN), or CD169. Siglec-1 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the Siglec family within the Ig superfamily. This adhesion molecule especially binds to glycolipids and glycoproteins with terminal α-2 sialyl residues. Siglec-1 is expressed by macrophages and dendritic cells and serves as a cellular interaction molecule. Its expression can be upregulated by cells in response to type II collagen, or to cytokines including interferons, and tumor necrosis factor. Siglec-1 plays roles in endocytosis, hematopoiesis, and leucocyte migration. It mediates macrophage binding to various cell types including developing and mature leucocytes. Siglec-1 that is expressed by dendritic cells can also bind HIV-1 and may mediate viral transfer to bystander CD4+ T cells. Several Siglec-1 counter-receptors have been described including CD43, CD206, and CD227 which are expressed by T cells, macrophages, or breast cancer cells, respectively. The 7-239 antibody reportedly blocks Siglec-1 functions in some cellular assay systems.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV496 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BUV395 with an Ex Max of 348-nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 496-nm. BD Horizon BUV496 can be excited by the ultraviolet laser (355 nm) and detected with a 515/30 nm filter with a 450LP. Due to the excitation of the acceptor dye by other laser lines, there may be significant spillover into the channel detecting BD Horizon V500 or BV510 (eg, 525/40-nm filter). However, the spillover can be corrected through compensation as with any other dye combination.
