同型對照(Isotype Control):使用與一抗相同種屬來源、相同亞型、相同劑量和相同的免疫球蛋白及亞型的免疫球蛋白,用于消除由于抗體非特異性結合到細胞表面而產生的背景染色。如果一抗是多抗,可以用an normal serum(與一抗相同的正常血清) (must be the same species as primary antibody)。This control is easy to achieve and can be used routinely in immunohistochemical staining.這個可以咨詢試劑商。同型對照為免疫熒光標記中的陰性對照。由于熒光標記單抗的組來源不同,應選用相同來源的未標記單抗作為同型對照來調整背景染色。舉個例子:比如檢測一抗為單抗的mouse anti rat CD11b,clone OX-42 purified IgG,那么它的isotype 是mouse IgG2a, 所以可以用purified(純化的) mouse IgG2a來做OX-42的同型對照(Isotype Control)。一般的的生物技術公司和國內的代理都有出售。
(1)Keep samples after staining covered with aluminum foil and at 4 0C (in the refrigerator) until they are run for flow analysis. The samples should be analyzed within 48 hours. Fluorescence loses its brightness if cells are not kept properly: not at 4 0C, or are exposed to light
(2)If cells are not fixed with paraformaldehyde, keep the samples on ice and run them immediay after staining is accomplished
25、我現在要用間接法流式細胞術,剛買了熒光二抗,是KPL的fluorescein-labeled affinity purified antibody to mouse IgG+IgM(H+L) produced in goat .說明說上提示要用TBS或是BSA或milk diluent/blocking solution液稀釋。稀釋至1:10~1:100。請問BSA是不是小牛血清,要用多少濃度的。TBS液我沒有,還有可否用注射用水稀釋。
