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 tryptamine-(Pc), antibody specificity was performed with an ELISA test by competition
experiments with the following compounds :
| Compounds | Cross-reactivity ratio (a) |
|---|---|
| Tryptamine-G-(Pc) | 1 |
| 5-Hydroxytryptamine-G-(Pc) | 1/50 |
