pubmed:abstractText |
A new method of dual-color immunofluorescence is presented for analysis of surface antigen distribution among heterogeneous cell suspensions. It involves flow cytometric analysis of cells stained with a biotinylated first monoclonal antibody and/or with an unlabeled second monoclonal antibody. After addition of streptavidin-phycoerythrin and/or fluoresceinated goat antimouse immunoglobulin antibody, single-cell fluorescence intensities are measured and biparametric graphic representations are obtained, allowing one to determine the percentage of cells stained by each of the monoclonal antibodies or both. The validity of the method was assessed on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells by using three sets of two monoclonal antibodies: CD8 and CD5, CD3 and CD4, CD11 and HLA-DR. The results showed that dual staining did not induce significant quenching or competition between pairs of antibodies. The procedure is simple and sensitive. It requires only minute amounts of monoclonal antibodies. It is readily applicable to the screening of hybridoma supernatants and to the characterization of new antibodies to cell surface antigens with respect to well-defined markers.
