Artifacts Arising from Using Leukocytic Fc Receptor Blocking Buffer

Аннотация

We studied the effects of Human TruStain FcX buffer (Fcγ receptor blocking solution) in experiments on evaluation of TLR4 level with labeled monoclonal antibodies, intracellular immunofluorescent staining of NF-κB p50, and TNF-α synthesis on human isolated monocytes and whole blood cells. The influence of the blocking buffer on the measured parameters should be taken into account and appropriateness of its use in experiments on isolated cells and whole blood should be considered.
