Research Category
Neuroscience

Research Sub Category
Ion Channels & Transporters

Western blot: 1:250-1:500 using ECL on rat brain membranes.

Immunohistochemistry using rat brain sections.

Dilutions should be made using a carrier protein such as BSA (1-3%)

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Recognizes a full length Kv2.1 protein. Does not cross react with any other potassium channel antigens tested so far.

SPECIES REACTIVITIES: Should work in mouse (100% epitope homology) and in human and rabbit (88% epitope homology). Other species have not been tested.

Format: Purified

Purified immunoglobulin by Protein A. Lyophilized from phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% BSA, 5% sucrose as a stabilizer and 0.025% sodium azide as a preservative. Reconstitute with 50 μL of sterile deionized water. Centrifuge antibody preparation before use (10,000 xg for 5 min).

Maintain lyophilized material at -20°C for up to 12 months. After reconstitution maintain at -20°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Control
CONTROL ANTIGEN: Included free of charge with the antibody is 20 μg of control antigen (lyophilized powder in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 5% sucrose and 0.025% sodium azide). The stock solution of the antigen can be made up using 50 μL of sterile deionized water. For negative control, preincubate 1 μg of peptide with 1 μg of antibody for one hour at room temperature. Optimal concentrations must be determined by the end user.

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.
