S Antibody : Biotin (OAPB00218-Biotin)

The immunogen for anti-SARS Spike antibody: antibody was raised against a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids near the center of. The sARS Spike glycoprotein.

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.
