anti-conjugated Dopamine antiboides
Target :
Conjugated Dopamine
Immunogens :
Synthetic Dopamine conjugated to protein carriers (Pc)
Quantity :
100µl
Isotype :
IgG
Purity :
previously preabsobed on protein carriers, and purified
Form :
Lyophilized
Tested applications :
Immunocytochemistry, ELISA. Optimal dilutions should be determined by each laboratory for each application.
Research areas :
Neurobiology
Storage instructions :
Lyophilized vial must be stored at 4°C in a dry area. After reconstitution with 50μl of distilled water and 50μl of glycerol, the aliquot can be stored at -20°C, and is stable at least 2 years.
Specificity :
Using a conjugate Dopamine-(Pc), antibody specificity was performed with an ELISA test by competition experiments with the following compounds :
| Compounds | Cross-reactivity ratio (a) |
|---|---|
| Dopamine-G-(Pc) | 1 |
| Noradrenaline-G-(Pc) | 1/200 |
| L-DOPA-G-(Pc) | 1/400 |
| Octopamine-G-(Pc) | 1/400 |
| Tyramine-G-(Pc) | 1/>5,000 |
| Adrenaline-G-(Pc) | 1/>5,000 |
(a) : Dopamine-G-(Pc) concentration/unconjugated or conjugated catecholamine concentration at half displacement; G = Glutaraldehyde
