The Molecular Probes™ unlabeled BioParticles™ product line comprises heat- or chemically killed S. aureus (Wood strain, without protein A) and zymosan (S. cerevisiae) cells. These nonfluorescent BioParticles™ products are useful in phagocytosis assays, both as controls and for custom-labeling with reactive dyes.
BioParticles Specifications:
• Label (Ex/Em): Unlabeled
• Particle: S. aureus (Wood strain, without protein A)
• Opsonizing reagent available
Using BioParticles™ Products
BioParticles™ conjugates are provided as lyophilized powders. There are approximately 3 x 108 S. aureus particles per mg solid and approximately 2 x 107 zymosan particles per mg solid. BioParticles™ conjugates can be reconstituted in the buffer of your choice for use in phagocytosis assays.
Find More BioParticles™ Products
We offer a large range of dye-labeled and unlabeled E. coli (K-12 strain), S. aureus (Wood strain, without protein A), and zymosan (S. cerevisiae) BioParticles™ products. Find out about these products and their applications by reviewing Probes for Following Receptor Binding and Phagocytosis—Section 16.1 in the Molecular Probes™ Handbook.
For pH-sensitive endocytosis assays, see our fluorescent pHrodo™ BioParticles™ conjugates.
For Research Use Only. Not for human or animal therapeutic or diagnostic use.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
While the bacteria have been attenuated with formaldehyde and alcohol desiccation, the BioParticles products are not considered sterile, and we do not recommend incubation of more than 4 hours. This applies to all of our dye-labeled (pHrodo, Alexa Fluor, etc.) and unlabeled BioParticles products.
Staphylococcus aureus (Wood strain without protein A) BioParticles, unlabeled (Cat. No. S2859) contains 3 x 108particles/mg.

Abstract
Dectin-2 is a pattern recognition receptor for fungi that couples with the Fc receptor gamma chain to induce innate immune responses.
Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:17050534
'Antigen presenting cells recognize pathogens via pattern recognition receptors (PRR), which upon ligation transduce intracellular signals that can induce innate immune responses. Because some C-type lectin-like receptors (e.g. dectin-1 and DCSIGN) were shown to act as PRR for particular microbes, we considered a similar role for dectin-2. Binding assays using
