Certificate of Analysis | ||||||
Pre-coated Plate: | 96-well polystyrene microtiter plate coated with monoclonal antibody 4A6 and treated with stabilizing agent. Sealed in foil pouch with desiccant. |
|||||
Monoclonal Antibody: | 4A6 | |||||
Immunogen: | Asp f 1 | |||||
Isotype: | Mouse IgG1 | |||||
Specificity: | Binds to a common epitope on Aspergillus fumigatus allergen, Asp f 1. | |||||
Purification: | Produced in tissue culture and purified by chromatography using Protein G. Single heavy and light chain bands on SDS-PAGE. | |||||
|
||||||
Detection Antibody: | Polyclonal antibody raised against partially purified Asp f 1 (1,2). | |||||
Vial: | Brown Cap; 100µl | |||||
Specificity: | The pAb contains IgG antibodies to Asp f 1 as well as IgG antibodies to other Aspergillus allergens. | |||||
Activity: | The pAb is in phosphate buffered saline containing 1%BSA 50%glycerol PBS, pH 7.4. The pAb has been 0.22µm filtered and should be diluted 1/1000 for use in Asp f 1 ELISA. | |||||
|
||||||
Allergen Standard: | Naturally purified Asp r 1 prepared in 1% BSA/50% glycerol/PBS, 0.22μm filtered, preservative free, pH 7.4 | |||||
Concentration: | 400ng/mL
The Asp f 1 concentration was determined by amino acid analysis. Asp f 1 and Asp r 1 (mitogillin) are 95% homologous (differing by 4 amino acid residues) and are antigenically and functionally indistinguishable (1). |
