PEG is used as a fusogen to obtain hybridomas for monoclonal antibody production. Induces cell hybridization.
Recommended for use in a normal fusion protocol requiring 50% PEG and 10% DMSO.
Packaging
Packaged in sealed ampules under nitrogen.
Other Notes
Contains 50% (w/v) polyethylene glycol (Av. Mol. Wt. 1450) and 10% DMSO (v/v) in DPBS without Calcium.
Reconstitution
Solution is ready-to-use. If a less concentrated solution is desired, dilute with sterile DPBS without calcium (D5773). Some precipitate may appear after being exposed to cooler, but should disappear as the solution warms. Solution may be frozen if desired but should first be aliquotted to avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Dengue virus (DV) infection causes a spectrum of clinical diseases ranging from dengue fever to a life-threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever. Four distinct serotypes (DV1-4), which have similar genome sequences and envelope protein (E protein) antigenic properties, were divided. Among these
Repeated failures of "Aβ-lowering" therapies call for new targets and therapeutic approaches for Alzheimer's disease (AD). We propose to treat AD by halting neuronal death and repairing synapses using a BDNF-based therapy. To overcome the poor druggability of BDNF, we
The receptor tyrosine kinase, anexelekto (Axl) is involved in tumor cell growth, migration and invasion, and has been associated with chemotherapy resistance, which makes it an attractive target for cancer therapy. In total, six Axl-targeted monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and two
The pathogenicity of many bacteria, including Streptococcus pneumoniae, depends on pore-forming toxins (PFTs) that cause host cell lysis by forming large pores in cholesterol-containing cell membranes. Therefore, PFTs-neutralising antibodies may provide useful tools for reducing S. pneumoniae pathogenic effects. This
Incomplete O-glycosylation is a feature associated with malignancy resulting in the expression of truncated glycans such as the sialyl-Tn (STn) antigen. Despite all the progress in the development of potential anti-cancer antibodies, their application is frequently hindered by low specificities
