About CD31
The protein encoded by this gene is found on the surface of platelets, monocytes, neutrophils, and some types of T-cells, and makes up a large portion of endothelial cell intercellular junctions. The encoded protein is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and is likely involved in leukocyte migration, angiogenesis, and integrin activation. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

About Brilliant Ultraviolet 737
Brilliant™ UltraViolet 737 (BUV737) is a near infrared-emitting tandem fluorophore that combines BD Horizon® BUV395 and an acceptor dye. It can be excited by the 355 nm ultraViolet laser and collected using a 740/35 bandpass filter. BUV737 has an excitation peak at 498 nm and an emission peak at 732 nm BUV737 has a medium/high relative brightness, and is most commonly used for multicolor flow cytometry. This dye is part of the Brilliant™ UltraViolet dye family, developed and sold by BD Biosciences. This family of dyes uses BUV396 as the donor so that all dyes in the family can be excited by the 355 nm ultraViolet laser. Depending on the acceptor, the dyes in this family have different relative brightness ratings.
