General description

Normal carrier sera, produced from pooled lots of sera from healthy, non-immunized donkeys.
Normal donkey serum is a common blocking agent used to reduce background staining by preventing non-specific binding of antibodies to tissue or fragment crystallizable (FC) receptors.

Application

Normal Donkey Serum, Sterile has been used to reduce artificial staining of non-specific proteins during double-immunofluorescent labeling. It is also suitable for use in radioimmunoassay.

Warning

Toxicity: Standard Handling (A)

Physical form

pH 7.0-8.5.

Reconstitution

Following reconstitution, aliquot and freeze (-20°C). Stock solutions are stable for up to 6 months at -20°C.

Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) may play roles at intracellular and extracellular sites of the heart in ischaemia/reperfusion injury. Caveolins (Cav-1, -2 and -3) are lipid raft proteins which play roles in cell sig-nalling. This study examined, using immunohistochemistry and two photon

The current protocols for blocking background staining in immunohistochemistry are based on conflicting reports. Background staining is thought to occur as a result of either non-specific antibody (Ab) binding to endogenous Fc receptors (FcRs) or a combination of ionic and

Signalling through the Wnt pathway is integrally associated with colon carcinogenesis. Although activating mutations in the genes for adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) and beta-catenin are clearly associated with colon cancer, less is understood about the role of the upstream secreted
