| Concentration: |
| ~1mg/ml |
| Immunogen: |
| Affinity purified early antigen polypeptides precipitated from African Burkitt's Lymphoma. |
| Purity: |
| Purified by Protein A affinity chromatography. |
| Form |
| Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.2, 0.09% sodium azide. |
| Specificity: |
| Recognizes the the p50:p55 polypeptide complex associated with the early antigen of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Produces an intense diffuse and speckled staining pattern detectable in the nucleus of paraformaldehyde/acetone fixed cells expressing the EBV early nuclear antigen. Acetone and methanol fixation can be used, but the results are a less bright, coarsely granular nuclear staining pattern. |
|
| Intended for research use only. Not for use in human, therapeutic, or diagnostic applications. |
