Alternative Name: IFNG; Interferon-gamma; Interferon-γ; Type II interferon; MAF
Reactivity: Human (QC Testing), Rhesus, Cynomolgus, Baboon (Tested in Development)
Isotype: Mouse IgG1, κ
Immunogen: Human IFN-γ Recombinant Protein
Application: Intracellular staining (flow cytometry) (Routinely Tested)
Vol. Per Test: 20 µl
RRID: AB_397224
Storage Buffer: Aqueous buffered solution containing BSA and ≤0.09% sodium azide.
Regulatory Status: RUO
Preparation And Storage: Preparation And Storage Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed.
Recommended Assay Procedures: Recommended Assay Procedures Immunofluorescent Staining and Flow Cytometric Analysis: The PE-conjugated B27 antibody is useful for multicolor immunofluorescent staining and flow cytometric analysis to identify and enumerate IFN-γ producing cells within mixed cell populations (see image). This 100 Test Size formulation of the PE-conjugated B27 antibody has been pre-titrated to assure effective intracellular detection of human IFN-γ using 20 µl per 1 x 10e6 cells. For specific methodology, please visit our website, http://www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources and refer to the protocols section under "Cytokines (Intracellular Staining)" or "Intracellular Flow". A suitable mouse IgG1 isotype control for assessing the level of background staining on paraformaldehyde-fixed/saponinpermeabilized human cells is also available in a 100 Test Size formulation PE-MOPC-21 (Cat. No. 559320). A useful control for demonstrating specificity of staining is the following: pre-block the paraformaldehyde-fixed/saponin-permeabilized cells with unlabeled B27 antibody (Cat. No. 554699/550011) prior to staining. The intracellular cytokine staining technique and blocking controls are described in detail by C. Prussin and D. Metcalfe. Important Note: This pre-titered antibody solution does not contain a cell permeabilization agent. It is necessary to include a cell permeabilization agent when using the pre-titered antibody solution to stain fixed and permeabilized cells. Perm/Wash™ Buffer (Cat. No. 554723) contains the permeabilization agent saponin and is useful for this purpose as described in the USAGE section below. USAGE 1. Resuspend 1 x 10^6 fixed and permeabilized cells in 20 µl of the pre-titered antibody solution and 30 µl of 1X Perm/Wash™ Buffer. 2. Incubate the cell suspension for 15 minutes (4°C, in the dark). 3. Wash twice in 100 µl of 1X Perm/Wash™ Buffer.
Product Notices: Product Notices This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test). An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.

Species cross-reactivity detected in product development may not have been confirmed on every format and/or application. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
