APPLICATIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Recommended dilutions for use are approximate values.  A dose dependent response assay should be performed to determine the optimal concentration for use in specific applications.

ELISA may be performed at 10-100ng/ml of mAb depending on the amount of immobilized antigen in the assays.  Western ELISA requires 1-5µg of mAb/ml.
