TetX Antibody

This antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a polyhistidine-tagged TTFC fusion protein expressed in E. coli corresponding to full length TTFC.

This antibody is directed against the C fragment of Tetanus toxin derived from Clostridium tetani. The product was prepared from monospecific antiserum by delipidation and defibrination. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross reactivity with Clostridium tetani. Cross-reactivity with TTFC from other sources have not been determined.

Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use.

This antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and western blot. For western blots expect a band of approximately 52 kDa in size corresponding to full-length TTFC. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user.
