Rabbit anti-Chicken IgY (H&L), TRITC conjugated

Rabbit anti-chicken IgG/Y (H&L) is a secondary antibody conjugated to TRITC , which binds to chicken IgG/Y (H&L) in immunological assays. Antibody is affinity purified using solid phase chicken IgG/Y. Tetramethylrhodamine-5-isothiocyanate (TRITC) has Amax = 550 nm; Emax = 570 nm.

Purity of this preparation is > 95% based on SDS-PAGE. Antibody concentration is 1.0 mg/ml (E 1% at 280 nm = 13.0) . Antibody is supplied in 10 mM sodium phosphate, 0.15 M sodium chloride, pH 7.2.1 % (w/v) B, Protease/IgG free. Contains 0.05% (w/v) sodium azide as preservative of bacterial growth.Based on immunoelectrophoresis, this antibody reacts with: heavy chains on chicken IgG (IgY), light chains on all chicken immunoglobulins Based on immunoelectrophoresis, no reactivity is observed to: non-immunoglobulin chicken serum proteins

Store lyophilized material at 2-8°C. For long time storage after reconstitution, dilute the antibody solution with glycerol to a final concentration of 50% glycerol and store as liquid at -20°C, to prevent loss of enzymatic activity. For example, if you have reconstituted 1 mg of antibody in 1,1 ml of sterile water add 1,1 ml of glycerol. Such solution will not freeze in -20°C. If you are using a 1:5000 dilution prior to diluting with glycerol, then you would need to use a 1:2500 dilution after adding glycerol. Prepare working dilution prior to use and then discard, Be sure to mix well but without foaming.
