TIMP1 Antibody

Produced from sera of rabbits pre-immunized with highly pure (>98%) recombinant hTIMP-1 (human Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases-1) . Human TIMP-1 specific antibody was purified by affinity chromatography employing immobilized hTIMP-1 matrix.

Neutralization:To yield one-half maximal inhibition [ND50] of the biological activity of Human TIMP-1 (3.0 μg/mL), a concentration of 5.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required.ELISA:Indirect:To detect hTIMP-1 by indirect ELISA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5 - 2.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant hTIMP-1.SandwichTo detect hTIMP-1 by sandwich ELISA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5 - 2.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with our biotinylated Anti-Human TIMP-1 as a detection antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant hTIMP-1. Western Blot:To detect hTIMP-1 by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1 - 0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant hTIMP-1 is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.
