Anti - Ghrelin

May be stored at 4 °C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%). Freeze at -20 °C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 °C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.

The 15-aa human sequence is 100% conserved in mouse, canine, rat, 86% in porcine and 66% in bovine ghrelin. Full length ghrelin and des-ghrelin (acylated and non-acylated) are also available for antibody and other studies.
