Description:
This pool of four monoclonal antibodies detects the latent membrane protein (LMP-1) derived from the BNLF1 gene of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). This antibody cocktail will help detect EBV infected cells in normal and uncharacterized tissues.
Applications:
Suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Immunohistochemistry: 1:100-1:200 for 1hr at RT
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Positive Control:
Lymph node, Hodgkin’s disease (about 50% of cases are likely to be positive). Cytoplasmic staining pattern may be observed in Reed Sternberg cells.
Storage and Stability:
Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Stable for 12 months at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Reconstituted product is stable for 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.
