ChoosingTheRightFluorochromes AdaptedfromHoldenandTrotter (Winter 2006) “SelectingReagents for Multicolor FlowCytometry” BD Hotlinesnewsletter, 11: 31.-34
Rule 1 Choose the Brightest Fluorochromes
D W1 W2 Fluorochromes(StainIndex) BrightestFluorochrome = HighestStainIndex MFIPOSITIVE ̶ MFINEGATIVE Stain Index = 2 × rSDNEGATIVE StainIndex (SI) =D/W
Fluorochromes(StainIndex) Freshly isolated lymphocytes, stained with anti-human CD3 antibodies conjugated with various fluorochromes
Fluorochromes(Choosethebrightest) StainIndexofvarious anti-CD4 fluorochromeconjugatesmeasuredon a BD LSR II
Rule 2 Minimize Potential Spillover
Spillover (Minimize spillover) A singlefluorochromecanbedetectedin more thanonechannel Spectral Overlap Correcting spillover
Compensation Compensationis a mathematicalsubtraction to correctspectraloverlap A488true = A488measured - % 1 A488true = A488measured - % PE true 0 % 5 % 10 % 15 % 20 % 30 % PE true = PE measured - % A488true Alexa488 http://www.drmr.com/compensation/ PE Roederer, M. 2002. Compensation in Flow Cytometry. Current Protocols in Cytometry. 1.14.1–1.14.20
Spillover (Minimize spillover) Slide taken from presentation: Mario Roederer, “Compensation: Basic Principles”, Monday, June 20, 2011
Rule 3 • Reserve brightest fluorochromes for “dim” antibodies and vice-versa
ColorsandAntibody Specificities • (Reserve bright labels for dim antibodies) SingleStainControls SingleStainControls CD4-Alexa488 Fluorescence CD4-PE Fluorescence CD25-PE Fluorescence CD25-Alexa488 Fluorescence CD4-Alexa488 Fluorescence CD4-PE Fluorescence CD25-PE Fluorescence CD25-Alexa488 Fluorescence
Rule 4 • Avoid spillover from bright populations into detectors requiring high sensitivity
ColorsandAntibody Specificities • (Avoid spillover of bright cells into detectors of dim signals) SingleStainControls Sample CD4-Cy5 Fluorescence CD4-Cy5 Fluorescence CD4-Alexa488 Fluorescence CD4-Alexa488 Fluorescence CD25-PE Fluorescence CD25-PE Fluorescence CD25-PE Fluorescence CD25-PE Fluorescence CD4-Alexa488 Fluorescence CD25-PE Fluorescence
Rule 5 • Take steps to avoid tandem dye degradation
Tandem Dyes Watchout for degradation TIME APC- 30% PE-Cy5 APC- 40% PE-Cy5 APC-50% PE-Cy5 PE-Cy5 Fluorescence PE-Cy5 Fluorescence PE-Cy5 Fluorescence APC Fluorescence APC Fluorescence APC Fluorescence PE-Cy5 PE-Cy7 APC-Cy7 APC-H7
“Rules” for selecting Multicolor Panel • takenfrom BD Biosciences Rule 1: Choosethebrightestsetoffluorochromes for your particular instrumentconfiguration. Rule 2: Choosefluorochromesso as to minimize thepotential for spillover. Rule 3: Reserve thebrightestfluorochromes for “dim” antibodies, and vice versa. Rule 4: Avoidspilloverfrombrightcellpopulationsintodetectorsrequiringhighsensitivity for thosepopulations. Rule 5: Takesteps to avoid tandem dyedegradation, andconsideritsimpactuponresults.
