(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 immediately after staining is accomplished
因此,如果你没有用PBS洗的话,可以用paraformaldehyde固定,放置48小时。洗了后应该尽快检测。如果做好不能及时检测,我们一般是加入等量的2%的多聚甲醛固定,4度冰箱避光贮存。一般过夜没有问题,第二天同样PBS 2ml 洗涤细胞一次,上机检测。
024.表中流式细胞仪给出的平均值是什么意思,是怎样得到的,有些文献中提到“fluorescence per cell”,是下面的mean值吗,还是要用mean值除以第1栏的细胞数events,才能得到fluorescence per cell ?
mean 值就是每个细胞的平均荧光强度,不用再除细胞数。这只是个相对值,如果求绝对值,应用已知荧光剂浓度值对应仪器给出的mean值,做标准曲线。以后你得到的mean值,就可以根据这条标准曲线查出真正的荧光浓度值。
025.运用间接法流式细胞术,刚买了荧光二抗,是KPL的fluorescein-labeled affinity purified antibody to mouse IgG+IgM(H+L) produced in goat .说明说上提示要用TBS或是BSA或milk diluent/blocking solution液稀释。稀释至1:10~1:100。请问BSA是不是小牛血清,要用多少浓度的。TBS液我没有,还有可否用注射用水稀释。
