- Validated for use with Flow Cytometry applications.
- Qdot® nanocrystals are photostable and do not need to be protected from light.
- Qdot® nanocrystals exhibit intrinsic brightness that can often be greater than other fluorophores.
Each lot has been tested by flow cytometry using human peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs). This testing was performed using 1 µL of antibody per 1 × 10e6 cells in a 100 µL staining volume (20 nM final concentration of Qdot® nanocrystals). Qdot® nanocrystal concentration is assigned based on optical density. See reverse for representative flow cytometry data.
Get Brightness and Stability with Qdot® Nanocrystals
Qdot® nanocrystals are nanometer-scale atom clusters of semiconductor material which exhibit narrow and symmetrical emission bandwidths with very long Stokes shifts. The nanocrystals can be excited with any wavelength below their emission maximum, but are best excited by UV or violet (405 nm) light. Qdot® nanocrystals demonstrate an intrinsic brightness and photostability that can be many times greater than observed with other classes of fluorophores. These advantages make Qdot® nanocrystals powerful tools for antibody staining. The cytometer must have an appropriate emission filter for the Qdot® nanocrystal being used.
Easy Staining
Stain cells in any standard staining buffer, such as phosphate buffered saline (PBS) with 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA).
Specific for CD27
According to the literature this antibody recognizes the CD27 antigen. CD27 is a member of the TNFR/NGFR family that binds to CD70. CD27 is expressed on some B cells, a subset of thymocytes, NK cells and T cells.
