Description

Rat Monoclonal Antibody

Description: The TER-119 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse erythroid cells from early proerythroblast to mature erythrocyte stages. The TER-119 antigen is present in yolk sac, fetal and newborn liver, but is not expressed by cells carrying BFU-E and CFU-E activities. Several erythroleukemia cell lines tested so far are negative for expression of TER-119 antigen even after dimethylsulfoxide stimulation. Biochemical and molecular analysis of the TER-119 antigen indicate that this molecule is associated with the surface glycophorin A, but is not a typical glycophorin. Applications Reported: This TER-119 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This TER-119 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse bone marrow cells. This can 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. PE-eFluor® 610 can be excited with laser lines from 488-561 nm and emits at 607 nm. We recommend using a 610/20 band pass filter (equivalent to PE-Texas Red®). Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochome. Light sensitivity: This tandem dye is sensitive to photo-induced oxidation. Please pr...

TER-119 is a lineage marker for erythroid cells from early proerythroblast to mature erythrocyte stages in adult blood, spleen, and bone marrow. It is also present in yolk sac, and fetal and newborn liver. The TER-119 antigen is not expressed by cells of earlier erythroid development at BFU-e (blast-forming unit erythroid) stage or CFU-e (colony-forming unit erythroid) stage.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can the eFluor Organic fluorochromes be used for intracellular staining?

Yes, the eFluor Organic fluorochromes can be used for intracellular staining. The eFluor organic fluorochromes maintain bright signal and require minimal changes in compensation when fixed with eBioscience IC Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 00-8222-49) and Permeabilization Buffer (Cat. No. 00-8333-56) or 1-step Fix/Lyse Solution (Cat. No. 00-5333-54, 00-5333-57) (as compared to live cells).

What buffers are compatible with the eFluor Organic fluorochromes and eVolve QDots?

The eFluor Organic fluorochromes and eVolve QDots can be used with flow staining buffers containing PBS and protein.

What is the difference between eFluor Organic Dyes and eVolve Qdots?

The eFluor Organic Dyes (eFluor 450, APC-eFluor 780, PerCP-eFluor 710, eFluor 710) are conventional fluorochromes. In contrast, the eVolve line of products are Quantum dots.

Are the eFluor Organic Dyes photo-labile?

As with other fluorochromes, we recommend minimal exposure to light to maintain optimal signal.
