Protocol
FLOW CYTOMETRY ANALYSIS: Method: 1. Prepare a cell suspension in media A. For cell preparations, deplete the red blood cellpopulation with cell separation medium. 2. Wash 2 times. 3. Resuspend the cells to a concentration of 2x10e7 cells/ml in media A. Add 50 µl of thissuspension to each tube (each tube will then contain 1 x 10e6 cells, representing 1 test). 4. To each tube, add 0. 1-0. 2 µg* of ABIN114273. 5. Vortex the tubes to ensure thorough mixing of antibody and cells. 6. Incubate the tubes for 30 minutes at 4°C. 7. Wash 2 times at 4°C. 8. Add 100 µl of secondary antibody FITC Goat anti-rat IgG (H+L) . 9. Incubate tubes at 4°C for 30-60 minutes (It is recommended that tubes are protectedfrom light since most fluorochromes are light sensitive). 10. Wash 2 times at 4°C. 11. Resuspend the cell pellet in 50 µl ice cold media B. 12. Transfer to suitable tubes for flow cytometric analysis containing 15 µl of propidiumiodide at 0. 5 mg/ml in PBS. This stains dead cells by intercalating in DNA. Media: A. Phosphate buffered saline (pH 7. 2) + 5% normal serum of host species + sodium azide(100 µl of 2M sodium azide in 100 mls). B. Phosphate buffered saline (pH 7. 2) + 0. 5% Bovine serum albumin + sodium azide (100µl of 2M sodium azide in 100 mls). Results: Mouse Strain: BALB/cCell
