We were interested in looking at the expression of MDL-1 protein in a specific subset of myeloid cells from human PBMCs. MDL-1 monoclonal antibody is not available from many companies and if any is available, the price is high and specificity is a big concern.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Flow Cytometry

Sample

Human PBMCs

Primary Incubation

Used at 20ul per 1 x 106 isolated PBMCs for 1h

Blocking Agent

FBS/human AB serum

Secondary Incubation

NA

Tertiary Incubation

NA

Detection

PE on flow cytometer

Results Summary

Excellent intracellular detection due to the unique combination of strong dye PE and direct conjugation to the monoclonal antibody with little or no background if correctly gated against the isotype.

Additional Notes

Isotype-PE staining is absolutely a must. Although monoclonal is extremely good, it is definitely a must.
