Quinolinic Acid Monoclonal Antibody
The Quinolinic Acid Monoclonal Antibody is For Research Use Only
Synonyms: Pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid antibody, 2,3-pyridinedicarboxylic acid antibody, 3,4-Pyridinedicarboxylic acid, antibody Pyridine-3,4-dicarboxylic acid antibody
Immunogen: Conjugated quinolinic acid Isotype: IgG1 k chain
Clone: Clone 4E11-G3
Specificity: When tested in competitive ELISA, the anti-Quinolinic acid antibody did not show any significant cross reactivity with Picolinic and Quinaldic acid conjugates.
Concentration: 0.5 mg/mL
Size: 50 µL
Storage: 4°C
Affinity & Specificity
Competitive ELISA demonstrates that low amounts of Quinolinic acid conjugate are required to abolish antigen-antibody reaction (high affinity), while rising concentrations of Picolinic and Quinaldic acid conjugates do not affect the reaction (high specificity).
Protocols
Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Dilute at 1:100-1:1000. Perform heat antigen retrieval (pH=9) before initiating IHC staining protocol on paraffin-embedded and frozen sections
Immunofluorescence (IF): Dilute at 1:50-1:500 on paraffin-embedded and frozen sections. Perform heat antigen retrieval and incubate fluorescent dyes conjugated secondary antibody
Comments: Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end-user
