Rabbit anti-Monkey Serum Proteins Secondary Antibody

Monkey

ELISA, Immunoelectrophoresis, Immunoprecipitation

Unconjugated

Polyclonal Rabbit

LYOPH mg/ml

Pooled whole Rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) serum and partly purified serum fractions. Freund's complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

Inter-species cross-reactivity is a normal feature of antibodies to animal proteins since homologous proteins of different species frequently share antigenic determinants. This antiserum has not been adsorbed for such cross reactivity. Consequently it is not species-specific. It will also react with other old-world Monkeys, including Cercopithecus, Cynomolgus and baboon. This antiserum is also reacting with Chimpanzee, but it gives less precipitin lines in an immunoelectrophoresis than with Rhesus Monkey Serum.

The lyophilized antiserum is shipped at ambient temperature and may be stored at 4C; prolonged storage at or below -20C. Dilutions may be prepared by adding phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). Repeated thawing and freezing should be avoided. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage, this should be removed by centrifugation. It will not affect the performance of the antiserum. Diluted antiserum should be stored at 4C, not refrozen, and preferably used the same day.

Whole Antiserum

Reconstitute the lyophilized antiserum by adding 1 ml sterile distilled water. Dilutions may be prepared by adding phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2).
