Product Specifications: Item # 2504: Human Anti-gp160 HIV-1 pAb IgG Concentration: See vial Mass/vial: 100ug Diluent: PBS Purity: >90% Stabilizer: None Preservative: None Storage: -75°C Physical State: Frozen Liquid Stability: At least 6 months at -75°C Minimum Dilution: 1 : 1000 Application: ELISA/gp41 Western ELISA, Immunoprecipitation, Immunohistochemistry, Virus Neutralization Assays, FACS, gp41 Capture ELISA. Description: pAb IgG fraction purified from human HIV-1 immune serum . Purification: This pAb IgG was purified by rgp160-affinity chromatography to >95% purity as determined by SDS-PAGE, reduced. Specificity: This pAb IgG binds to native and recombinant HIV-1gp160/ gp41 in ELISA and Western ELISA. Biological Activity: Neutralizes HIV-1 virus in Co-cultures as assayed by syncycium formation and in supT1 infected cells by p24, RT, LTR-CAT activation and cell viability assays. Application and Instructions for use: Recommended dilutions for use are approximate values. A dose dependent response assay should be performed to determine the optimal concentration for use in specific applications. This pAb IgG yields titres of greater than 1 : 2000 with 100ng of immobilized gp41 (Product# 1091) under standard conditions. ELISA and Western ELISA may be performed at 1-2µg/ml of pAb depending on the nature and the quantity of the immobilized antigen Histochemical studies require dilutions in 1 : 200 dilution range. Virus neutralization assays are performed in 10ug/ml antibody range. Caution: Avoid use of needles and ensure that proper laboratory safety precautions are in place for the use of this product.
