Description
The eBio13G3-19D monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse Ly108, the mouse homologue of human SLAMF6 (signaling lymphocyte activation molecule family member 6). Mouse Ly108 is also known as NTB-A (NK cell, T cell, B cell antigen), and is expressed on NK, T cells, and B cells. Staining has not revealed any strain differences between C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice. Other strains have not been tested.
This product contains 1 vial of NovaFluor conjugate and 1 vial of CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer.
Applications Tested
This eBio13G3-19D (13G3-19D) antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes and thymocytes. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.8 µg per test. A test is defined as the amount (µg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
Master mixes
• Master mixes of NFs should be made at 2-8 °C and may be made up to 4 hours ahead of time.
• We do not recommend storing master mixes containing NovaFluor conjugates overnight or longer.
Whole Blood compatibility
• When utilizing whole blood (as opposed to density-gradient-purified PBMC), we recommend lysing red blood cells in bulk prior to staining with NovaFluor conjugates.
• See the Bulk Lysis of Human Whole Blood protocol here.
• Staining of whole blood with NovaFluor conjugates followed by lysis of red blood cells may result in higher-than-expected background staining.
Viability dye compatibility
• NovaFluor dyes are not compatible with DNA intercalating viability dyes.
• Do not use viability dyes such as propidium iodide, 7-actinomycin D (7-AAD) and DAPI. Invitrogen LIVE/DEAD Fixable Dead Cell stains are recommended for use with NovaFluor dyes.
CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer
• This NovaFluor conjugate comes with CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer (Cat. No. C001T03F01), essential for optimal staining.
• Use CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer in all experiments with NovaFluor conjugates.
• Add 5 μL per sample to antibody cocktails/master mixes (regardless of how many Novafluor-conjugated antibodies are present) before combining with cells.
• CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer is compatible with either Super Bright Complete Blocking Buffer or Brilliant Stain Buffer and can be used in antibody cocktails/master mixes with those reagents.
• For single-color controls, use 5 μL of CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer per 100 μL of cell sample (10^3 to 10^8 cells).
NovaFluor conjugates are based on Phiton technology utilizing novel fluorophore-containing nucleic acid dye structures that allow for engineered fluorescent signatures with consideration for spillover and spread impacts. Learn more

Ly108, the mouse homologue of human SLAMF6 (signaling lymphocyte activation molecule family member 6), is expressed on NK cells, B cells, and T cells. Engagement of the Ly108 receptor enhances NK cell activity and increases the expression of IFN-gamma. This receptor plays a role in the inability of NK cells to kill Epstein Barr virus-infected B cells in X-linked lymphoproliferative disease. In Ly108 knock-out mice, CD4+ T cells show a diminished ability to produce IL-4 and exhibit defective neutrophil functions, indicating the importance of Ly108 in immune regulation and cellular function. Overall, Ly108 is crucial for modulating immune responses and maintaining effective immune cell activity.
