Details

Chickens were immunized with three synthetic peptide / keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) conjugates. These synthetic peptides corresponded to different regions of the mouse nestin gene product (NM_NP_057910), but are shared with the rat (NM_012987, NCBI) protein sequence. After repeated injections, immune eggs were collected, and the IgY fractions were purified from the yolks. These IgY fractions were then affinity-purified using a peptide column, and the concentrations of the eluates adjusted to 300 µg/mL. Finally, equal volumes of each of the three affinity-purified anti-peptide antibodies were mixed, and the preparation was filtersterilized.

Clonality: Polyclonal

Host Species: Chicken

Species Reactivity: Mouse, Rat

Protein Name / Synonyms: Nestin

Gene ID: NES Nbla00170

Antibody Registry ID (RRID): AB_2314882

Physical State: Liquid

Validation and Application Notes

Molecular Weight: 250 kDa

Western Blot Dilution Range: 1:10000-1:20000

IHC Dilution Range: 1:1000-1:2000

Quality Control

Each of the three antibodies were analyzed by immunohistochemistry (at a dilution of 1:20000) using fluorescein-labeled goat anti-chicken IgY (1:500 dilution, Aves Labs Cat.# F-1005) as the secondary reagent.

Storage

Store at 4°C in the dark. Under these conditions, the antibodies should have a shelf life of at least 12 months (provided they remain sterile). Do not freeze these antibodies unless you want to store them for longer periods of time. Note, however, that each time an antibody preparation is frozen, about half of its binding activity is lost.

NOTE

Aves Labs products are intended for use as research laboratory reagents. They are not intended for use as diagnostic or therapeutic reagents in humans.
