OVA257-264 (SIINFEKL) peptide bound to H-2Kb Monoclonal Antibody (eBio25-D1.16 (25-D1.16)), Brilliant Violet™ 650, eBioscience™

Product Specific Information

Description: The 25-D1.16 monoclonal antibody reacts with the ovalbumin-derived peptide SIINFEKL bound to H-2Kb of MHC class I, but not with unbound H-2Kb, or H-2Kb bound with an irrelevant peptide. This antibody has proven to be very useful tracking the quantity and localization of these specific antigen-presenting cells (APC) in vivo.

Applications Reported: This eBio25-D1.16 (25-D1.16) antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested: This eBio25-D1.16 (25-D1.16) antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes. This may be used at less than or equal to 0.5 µg per test. A test is defined as the amount (µg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.

Brilliant Violet™ 650 (BV650) is a tandem dye that emits at 649 nm and is intended for use on cytometers equipped with a violet (405 nm) laser. Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochrome.

When using two or more Super Bright, Brilliant Violet™, Brilliant Ultra Violet™, or other polymer dye-conjugated antibodies in a staining panel, it is recommended to use Super Bright Complete Staining Buffer (Product # SB-4401-42) or Brilliant Stain Buffer™ (Product # 00-4409-75) to minimize any non-specific polymer interactions. Please refer to the datasheet for Super Bright Staining Buffer or Brilliant Stain Buffer for more information.

Light sensitivity: This tandem dye is sensitive to photo-induced oxidation. Please protect this vial and stained samples from light.

Fixation: Samples can be stored in IC Fixation Buffer (Product # 00-8222-49) (100 µL of cell sample + 100 µL of IC Fixation Buffer) or 1-step Fix/Lyse Solution (Product # 00-5333-54) for up to 3 days in the dark at 4°C with minimal impact on brightness and FRET efficiency/compensation. Some generalizations regarding fluorophore performance after fixation can be made, but clone-specific performance should be determined empirically.

Our internal testing suggests that Brilliant Violet™ 650 (BV650) is not compatible with methanol-based fixation.

Excitation: 407 nm; Emission: 649 nm; Laser: Violet Laser.
