Product Details

Reactivity

Mouse

Antibody Type

Monoclonal

Host Species

Rat

Immunogen

Raised against granulocytes of mouse origin

Formulation

Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide and BSA (origin USA).

Preparation

The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and conjugated with Brilliant Violet 421™ under optimal conditions.

Storage & Handling

The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C, and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

Application

FC - Quality tested

Recommended Usage

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining using the µl size, the suggested use of this reagent is 5 µl per million cells in 100 µl staining volume or 5 µl per 100 µl of whole blood. For flow cytometric staining using the µg size, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤ 0.25 µg per million cells in 100 µl volume. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Brilliant Violet 421™ excites at 405 nm and emits at 421 nm. The standard bandpass filter 450/50 nm is recommended for detection. Brilliant Violet 421™ is a trademark of Sirigen Group Ltd.

Application Notes

Clone RB6-8C5 binds with high affinity to mouse Ly-6G molecules and to a lower extent to Ly-6C¹⁹. Clone RB6-8C5 impairs the binding of anti-mouse Ly-6G clone 1A8¹⁹. However, clone RB6-8C5 is able to stain in the presence of anti-mouse Ly-6C clone HK1.4²⁰.

The RB6-8C5 antibody has been used to identify peripheral blood neutrophils and deplete granulocytes in vivo. Additional reported applications (for relevant formats of this clone) include: in vitro complement-mediated cytotoxicity², in vivo depletion^3-5,9, immunoprecipitation¹, immunohistochemical staining⁶ (including paraffin-embedded sections^9,16,33-35, acetone-fixed frozen sections¹¹ and zinc-fixed sections¹⁵), and Western blotting⁷. RB6-8C5 is not suitable for depletion of hepatic myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs)²⁰.

Special Note: For in vivo studies or highly sensitive assays, we recommend Ultra-LEAF™ purified antibody (Cat. No. 108436).
