Description:
Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and RIA. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilutions: ELISA: 1:100-1:5000 RIA: 1:100-1:200 Chondroitinase ABC digestion prior to antibody reaction is required for antibody reactivity. A dramatic proteolytic digestion of the core protein (e.g. with papain or pronase) significantly reduces the antibody reactivity. 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 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. |

| Ascites |
| Form |
| Supplied as a liquid, no preservative added. |
| Specificity: |
| Recognizes human Chondroitin 6 Sulfate. Reacts with a wide range of cartilage proteoglycans after either chondroitinase (ABC or AC) or testicular hyaluronidase digestion. Antibody binding to epitope is successfully inhibited by disaccharides of chondroitin-6-sulfate. Recognizes the chondroitin-6-sulfate stubs (preferentially in clusters) of high density cartilage proteoglycans of different species. Does not react with native proteoglycans, dermatan sulfate, keratan sulfate or chondroitin-4-sulfate. Species Crossreactivity: chondroitin-6-sulfate stubs of all proteoglycans of all species. |
