CASP9 Antibody : Biotin (OAPB00049-Biotin)

All conjugated antibodies should be stored in light-protected vials or covered with a light protecting material (i.e. aluminum foil) . Conjugated antibodies are stable for at least 12 months at 4C. If longer storage is desired (24 months), conjugates may be diluted with up to 50% glycerol and stored at -20C to -80C. Freezing and thawing conjugated antibodies will compromise enzyme activity as well as antibody binding.

Caspase-9 antibody can be used for detection of caspase-9 by Western blot at 1:1000 to 1:2000 dilution. A 46 kDa band should be detected. It has no cross response to other members in caspase family. (Optimal dilution should be determined by user)
