Technical Data
C7510-17V
Collagen Type I (Biotin)
Description:
Collagen is an inert, rigid protein found predominantly in skin, ligaments, bones and teeth. Its most distinctive attribute, essential to a transmitter of mechanical force, is inelasticity. Its fundamental structural unit is tropo-collagen, a molecular rod about 2600Å in length and 15Å in diameter and 300kD molecular weight. In tendons these macromolecules, grouped as collagen fibrils, run parallel to the axis. In skin the fibrils are interlaced and branched.

Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA, Dot and Slot Blots, Western Blot, Immunocytochemistry and Immunohistochemistry. Not suitable for use in Western Blots. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
ELISA: 1:1000-1:4000
Dot/Slot Blot: 1:500-1:1000
Western Blot: reduced only
Indirect Immunohistochemistry (Frozen sections only): 1:20-1:40
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.
