Specificity

This antibody reacts specifically with the outer membrane protein I component of various strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and does not react with any human cell surface component.

Immunogen

Protein I preparation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

Application

Research Category
Secondary & Control Antibodies

Epitope Tags & General Use
Research Sub Category
Isotype Control Antibodies
The use of this antibody enables an estimation of non-specific binding of mouse monoclonal antibodies of isotype IgM to cell surface components in human blood and bone marrow. It is not suitable for use in immunohistochemical procedures.

SUGGESTED USAGE

The control antibody should be diluted to the same concentration as the test antibody, and equivalent volumes used. Flow cytometry and immunofluorescence - use 10 μl direct from the vial per 100 μl of whole blood, or 1 x 10E6 peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in 100 μl buffer.

Physical form

Format: Purified
Purified from mouse ascitic fluid. The antibody is supplied in 0.5ml 25mM Tris HCl, 0.4M NaCl, pH 8.0, containing 0.2% bovine serum albumin and 0.1% sodium azide. The characteristics of each lot are tested by electrophoresis, specific immunofluorescence assay and flow cytometry.

Storage and Stability

Store at 2 to 8°C, for up to 6 months. For prolonged periods, store below -20°C in undiluted aliquots. AVOID REPEATED FREEZE/THAW CYCLES.

WARNING: The monoclonal reagent solution contains 0.1% sodium azide as a preservative. Due to potential hazards arising from the build up of this material in pipes, spent reagent should be disposed of with liberal volumes of water.

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a medically important human viral pathogen that causes Chikungunya fever accompanied with debilitating and persistent joint pain. Host-elicited or passively-transferred monoclonal antibodies (mAb) are essential mediators of CHIKV clearance. Therefore, this study aimed to generate and

Muscle cell death in polymyositis is induced by CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes. We hypothesized that the injured muscle fibers release pro-inflammatory molecules, which would further accelerate CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes-induced muscle injury, and inhibition of the cell death of muscle

The ability of small molecules to maintain self-renewal and to inhibit differentiation of pluripotent stem cells has been well-demonstrated. Two widely used molecules are PD 98059 (PD), an inhibitor of extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1 (ERK), and SC1 (Pluripotin), which inhibits the
