Preparation And Storage: Preparation And Storage The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with PerCP-Cy5.5 under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PerCP-Cy5.5 were removed. Storage of PerCP-Cy5.5 conjugates in unoptimized diluent is not recommended and may result in loss of signal intensity. Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.
Recommended Assay Procedures: Recommended Assay Procedures PerCP has been reported to undergo significant photobleaching, the magnitudeof which increases as laser power is increased or beam focus is narrowed. For tandem conjugates incorporating PerCP (e.g., PerCP-Cy5.5), the excitation and emission properties of PerCP and the kinetics of energy exchange between the fluorochromes of the tandem dye may limit their effectiveness on high speed and/or sorting flow cytometers. Therefore, for third color flow cytometric analysis using ≥ 25-mW laser power, we recommend the PE-Cy7-conjugated reagent (Cat. No. 552878). PerCP-Cy5.5 is a tandem fluorochrome composed of peridinin chlorophyll protein (PerCP), which is excited by the 488-nm line of an Argon ion laser and serves as the energy donor, coupled to the cyanine dye Cy5.5™, which acts as the energy acceptor and fluoresces at 695nm. It is recommended that a 712/20-nm band-pass filter be used with stream-in-air instruments such as the BD FACStar™ and BD FACSVantage™ flow cytometry systems.
