Datasheet Extract

ImmunogenRat peritoneal macrophages
Format
State: Lyophilized Ig fraction
Purification: Affinity chromatoghraphy
BufferSystem: Phosphate buffered saline pH 7.2 (PBS), 5 mg/ml bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a stabilizer and 0.09 % sodium azide as a preservative
Reconstitution: Restore in 0.5 ml distilled water to a concentration of 0.2 mg/ml.
ApplicationsImmunohistochemistry on frozen sections (1:400).
Immunohistochemistry on paraffin sections (1:40; Proteinase K pretreatment for antigen retrieval is recommended).
Suggested positive control: Rat spleen.
SpecificityBM4003 recognizes typical tissue macrophages and specifically discriminates between monocytes (Ki-M2R-) and macrophages(Ki-M2R+). It stains all resident macrophages including those of bone marrow, lymphatic sinuses, lymphoid follicles, splenic red pulp, and Kupffer cells in the liver. Langerhans cells, interdigitating reticulum cells, and dendritic reticulum cells of lymphoid follicles are not stained.
Ki-M2R recognises a surface antigen of 45kD molecular weight as a single band under reducing conditions. The epitope has not been further characterized.
Antigen distribution:
Isolated cells: In the bone marrow a minor number of macrophages reveal a strong reactivity whereas granulocytes, erythropoetic cells and megacaryocytes are negative. Immature accessory cells such as dendritic or interdigitating reticulum cells are also negative. Monocytes show a positive reaction when exposed to TPA or foreign material.
Tissue sections: Ki-M2R positive cells have been recognised as active phagocytes in serous cavities (peritoneal and pleural macrophages). Liver (Kupffer cells), spleen (macrophages of the red pulp), lymph nodes (macrophages of the pulp and sinus, tingible body macrophages), lung (approx. 50 % of alveolar macrophages) and connective tissue (histiocytes) are positively stained. Plasma cells (excluding stimulated monocytes) as well as sinus lining cells are negative.
Species: Rat.
StorageStore lyophilized at 2 - 8 °C and reconstituted (in aliquots) at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Shelf life: One year from despatch.

ProtocolsProtocol with frozen, ice-cold acetone-fixed sections:
The whole procedure is performed at room temperature
1. Wash in PBS
2. Block endogenous peroxidase
3. Wash in PBS
4. Block with 10 % normal goat serum in PBS for 30 min. in a humid chamber
5. Incubate with primary antibody (dilution see datasheet) for 1h in a humid chamber
6. Wash in PBS
7. Incubate with secondary antibody (peroxidase-conjugated goat anti mouse IgG (H+L) minimal-cross reaction to rat) for 1 h in a humid chamber
8. Wash in PBS
9. Incubate with AEC substrate (3-amino-9-ethylcarbazol) for 12 min.
10. Wash in PBS
11. Counterstain with Mayer's hemalum

Protocol with formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections:
The whole procedure is performed at room temperature
1. Deparaffinize and rehydrate tissue section

4. Block endogenous peroxidase
5. Wash in PBS
6. Block with 10 % normal goat serum in PBS for 30 min. in a humid chamber
7. Incubate with primary antibody (dilution see datasheet) for 1h in a humid chamber
8. Wash in PBS
9. Incubate with secondary antibody (peroxidase-conjugated goat anti mouse IgG (H+L) minimal-cross reaction to rat) for 1h in a humid chamber
