 Application 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. 1. Dot blot assays may be performed in 1 : 50 dilution range depending on the concentration of solid phase antibody in the test system. Antigen capture assays are performed with solid phase antigen in concentrations of 1ug or more using HIV-1 converted serum for antigen cross linking. 2. Immunohistochemical studies may be performed in 1 : 50 dilution range.
