Applications Description:
Direct Immunofluorescence (Staining Procedure)
Nordic-MUbio fluorochrome labeled antibodies are designed for use with either whole blood or isolated mononuclear cell (MNC) preparations.

Proposed staining procedure for whole blood in short:
- For each sample add 50 ?l of EDTA anti-coagulated blood to a 3-5 ml tube
- Add 20 ?l of the appropriate Nordic-MUbio monoclonal antibody conjugate
- Incubate the tube for 15 minutes at 4°C or at room temperature in the dark
- Add 100 ?l NM-LYSE (Cat.No. GAS-003) to each tube and incubate for 10 minutes at room temperature - Add 3-4 ml of destilled water and vortex, incubate for 5-10
minutes at room temperature
- Centrifuge tube for 5 minutes at 300 g
- Aspirate supernatant and resuspend pellet in 0.3 ml of sheath fluid
- Analyze immediately or store samples at 2-8° C in the dark and analyze within 24 hours

For ?No-Wash? protocol please refer to www.nordicmubio.com

Proposed staining procedure for MNC in short:
- Carefully add 20 ?l antibody conjugate and 50-100 ?l MNC to the bottom of a tube
- Vortex at low speed for 1-2 seconds
- Incubate for 15-30 minutes at 2-8°C or at room temperature
- Centrifuge tubes for 5 minutes at 300 g
- Remove supernatant, resuspend cells in 2-5 ml of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and centrifuge cells again for 5 minutes at 300 g
- Remove supernatant and resuspend cells in sheath fluid for immediate analysis or resuspend cells in 0.5 ml 1 % formaldehyde and store them at 2-8°C in the dark. Analyze fixed cells within 24 hours
Background:
Each staining performed with specific monoclonal antibodies should be paralleled by a staining with an appropriate istotype matched control antibody, in order to be able to control for non-specific binding.

The COMBI-REAGENT-Negative Control permits to estimate the degree of non-specific binding of isotype matched immunologbulins to leukocytes via e.g. Fc-receptors. It enables the expert to set flow cytometric parameters accordingly.

Results must be put within the context of other diagnostic tests as well as the clinical history of the patient by a certified professional before final interpretation. Analyses performed with this antibody should be paralleled by positive and negative controls. If unexpected results are obtained, which cannot be attributed to differences in laboratory procedures, please contact us.
Caution:
For professional users only.
This reagent contains sodium azide. To avoid the development
of hazardous conditions, reagents containing azide should be
diluted in running water prior to be discarded. Similar to the work
with other biological products, proper handling procedures are
recommended.
