CountBright™ absolute counting beads are a calibrated suspension of microspheres that are brightly fluorescent across a wide range of excitation and emission wavelengths (UV to 635 nm excitation and 385-800 nm emission). CountBright™ absolute counting beads are mixed with the cell sample and assayed via flow cytometry. By comparing the ratio of bead events to cell events, absolute numbers of cells in the sample can be calculated. Because CountBright™ beads are mixed in the test sample, absolute cell counts using this single-platform method are more accurate and less complicated than cell concentration determined using multiple-platform testing. CountBright™ absolute counting beads can be used with any sample type, including no-wash/lysed whole blood.

자주 묻는 질문(FAQ)

With the CountBright Plus Absolute Counting Beads/CountBright Absolute Counting Beads, instead of a tight cluster of beads on the scatter plot, I am seeing the beads cover a broad area. What is causing this?

Prior to taking an aliquot, make certain to thoroughly mix the beads. This may also be caused if the beads were ever frozen or the stock solution has any microbial contamination.

Which buffers can I use with the CountBright Plus Absolute Counting Beads and CountBright Absolute Counting Beads?

You may use any physiological buffer or media in a pH range from pH 4 to 10. Avoid extremes of pH and high salt concentrations.

When using the Live/Dead BacLight Bacterial Viability and Counting Kit, for flow cytometry, some cells seem to have both red and green signal. Are these cells dead or alive or dying?

The green dye in the kit will label all the cells as it is a cell-permeant nucleic acid stain. The red dye is not cell permeant, and will only stain the cells with compromised membranes (dead cells). Therefore, any cells with red signal will be considered dead. It is possible that you will have some cells that are only red, some that are red and green, and some that are only green. Sometimes the red dye will displace the green dye. In any case, any red cells are dead.

Also, the green dye emission may bleed through into the red channel. Do a single-color staining and examine under both green and red filter sets to determine the level of bleedthrough. To avoid this bleedthrough, use a lower concentration of dye, and, if possible, use narrow bandpass filters.

How can I count my bacteria by flow cytometry?

There are several options. We have two fluorescence based kits that are useful for bacterial counting: Live/Dead BacLight Bacterial Viability and Counting Kit, for flow cytometry (Cat. No. L34856) and Bacteria Counting kit, for flow cytometry (Cat. No. B7277). Another option is the Flow Cytometry Sub-micron Particle Size Reference Kit (Cat. No. F13839).

Abstract
An impaired transendothelial migration potential of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells can be linked to ephrin-A4 expression.
Authors:Trinidad EM, Ballesteros M, Zuloaga J, Zapata A, Alonso-Colmenar LM,
Journal:Blood
PubMed ID:19828693
'Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cell migration into lymphoid tissues is an important aspect of the pathobiology of this disease. Here, we investigated the role of ephrin-A4 (EFNA4) in the transendothelial migration (TEM) capacity of CLL and normal B cells through interacting with endothelial EphA2 (erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular carcinoma). CLL cells showed ... More
Analysis of microRNA and protein transfer by exosomes during an immune synapse.
Authors:Villarroya-Beltri C, Gutiérrez-Vázquez C, Sánchez-Madrid F, Mittelbrunn M,
Journal:
PubMed ID:23719941
'Immune cells release microRNA-containing exosomes that can be taken up by recipient cells. Exosomes can thus act as mediators of cell-cell communication through direct exchange of genetic material between cells. Exosome-mediated transfer of miRNAs between T cells and antigen-presenting cells (APCs) can take place over long distances. Our work has ... More
Inhibition of NF-?B-mediated signaling by the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor CR8 overcomes prosurvival stimuli to induce apoptosis in chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells.
Authors:Cosimo E, McCaig AM, Carter-Brzezinski LJ, Wheadon H, Leach MT, Le Ster K, Berthou C, Durieu E, Oumata N, Galons H, Meijer L, Michie AM,
Journal:Clin Cancer Res
PubMed ID:23532892
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is currently incurable with standard chemotherapeutic agents, highlighting the need for novel therapies. Overcoming proliferative and cytoprotective signals generated within the microenvironment of lymphoid organs is essential for limiting CLL progression and ultimately developing a cure. We assessed the potency of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor CR8, ... More
PKCa negatively regulates in vitro proplatelet formation and in vivo platelet production in mice.
Authors:Williams CM, Harper MT, Poole AW,
Journal:Platelets
PubMed ID:23402219
Proplatelet formation is a part of the intricate process by which platelets are generated by their precursor cell, the megakaryocyte. The processes that drive megakaryocyte maturation and platelet production are however still not well understood. The protein kinase C (PKC) family of serine/threonine kinases has been demonstrated as an important ... More
CD26 inhibition enhances perfusion recovery in ApoE-/-mice.
Authors:Haverslag RT, de Groot D, Grundmann S, Meder B, Goumans MJ, Pasterkamp G, Hoefer IE, de Kleijn DP,
Journal:Curr Vasc Pharmacol
PubMed ID:23391419
The adaptive growth of blood vessels is important to prevent tissue loss following arterial occlusion. Extravasation of monocytes is essential for this process. The peptidase CD26 targets SDF-1 alpha, a chemokine regulating monocyte trafficking. We hypothesized that blocking SDF-1 alpha inactivation, using a commercially available CD26 inhibitor, accelerates perfusion recovery ... More
