Description:
Cellular Localization: Secreted
Positive Control: Rat spinal cord.
Applications: Suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry (Fr). Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution: Immunohistochemistry (frozen): 1:2000-1:4000 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. |

| Immunogen: |
| Synthetic peptide (Rat) conjugated to BSA by a Glutaraldehyde linker. |

| Form |
| Supplied as a liquid containing 0.1% sodium azide |
| Specificity: |
| On rat spinal cord immunostaining may be abolished by preincubation with 10nmol CGRP (rat alpha) per mL diluted antiserum. Neither substance P nor galanin have any effect on immunostaining when used at 10nmol/mL diluted antiserum. It is believed that this antibody crossreacts with all known forms of rat and human CGRP. Species Crossreactivity: Crossreacts with Human and Rat. |
