Anti-Glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPx-P, 135-154)

A synthetic peptide (FEKGDVNGEKEQKFYTFLKN) corresponding to the amino acids 135-154 of human glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPx-P) conjugated to diphtheria toxin has been used as the immunogen. The peptide is homologous with the corresponding sequence derived from glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPx-P) protein in mouse, rat, orangutan and bovine.

This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. For extended storage, aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Expiration date is one (1) year from date of receipt.

This is an extremely high titre antibody that detects 500 ng of peptide antigen on western blotting up to a dilution of 1: 500000. A dilution o f 1: 1000 to 1: 5000 is recommended for immunohistochemistry depending on detection method but end user will need to determine dilution to suit application. Antigen retrieval is recommended. For Western blotting it is recommended that several dilutions be tested in the range 1: 5000 to 1: 50000 although higher dilutions could be use if the antigen is in abundance in sample. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user.
