IgG2a/IgG2b Rat anti-Mouse, Brilliant Violet 650, Clone: R2-40, BD Optibuild™

Rat Monoclonal Antibody

Manufacturer:  BD Biosciences 744295

Catalog No. BDB744295

Description

The R2-40 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes a common epitope, probably located in the CH1 domain, shared by mouse IgG2a, and IgG2b, of Igh-Ca /and Igh-Cb /haplotypes. It does not react with other Ig isotypes.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV650 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 with an Ex Max of 405nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 650nm. BD Horizon BV650 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in a filter used to detect APC-like dyes (eg, 660/20nm filter). Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there will be spillover into the APC and Alexa Fluor™ 700 detectors. However, the spillover can be corrected through compensation as with any other dye combination. BV650 is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 and an acceptor dye with an emission maximum at 650 nm. Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there will be spillover into the APC and Alexa Fluor™ 700 detectors. BV650 will have moderate spillover into the BD Horizon™ BV711 detector.
