Description: Borrelia burgdorferi is a spirochete and the cause of Lyme disease, a tick transmitted illness of humans and animals. B. burgdorferi may persist in humans and animals for months or years following initial infection, despite a robust humoral immune response. B. burgdorferi resembles other spirochetes in that it is a highly specialized, motile, two-membrane, spiral shaped bacteria which lives primarily as an extracellular pathogen. B. burgdorferi has an unusual genome compared with other eubacteria which includes a linear chromosome approximately one megabase in size and numerous linear and circular plasmids. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA, Fluorescence Microscopy, Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry and Immunocytochemistry. It is also suitable for Conjugation purposes. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot: >1:1,000 Avidin-biotin IFA: >1:40,000 Immunohistochemistry: Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. |
