Produced from sera of goats pre-immunized with highly pure recombinant Rat IL-6. Anti-Rat IL-6 specific antibody was purified by affinity chromatography employing immobilized Rat IL-6 matrix.
Form:
A sterile filtered antibody solution was lyophilized from PBS, pH 7.2.
Antibody Type:
Polyclonal Antibody
Application Notes:
WesternBlot: To detect Rat IL-6 by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1- 0.2 µg/ml. When used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, the detection limit for recombinant Rat IL-6 is 1.5-3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.. Sandwich: To detect Rat IL-6 by sandwich ELISA (using 100 µl/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5 - 2.0 µg/ml of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with BioGems Biotinylated Anti-Rat IL-6 (62-006GBT) as a detection antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant Rat IL-6.. Immunohistochemistry: This antibody stained colchicine injected rat brain (cingulate cortex) tissue. The primary antibody was incubated at 1.0 µg/ml overnight at 4°C. This was followed by a peroxidase conjugated secondary antibody and then a fluorescein Tyramide Signal Amplification (TSA(TM)) reagent. Optimal concentrations and conditions may vary. <br /> <em><span style=font-size: 10px,>Information and photo are courtesy of the Tissue Profiling group, SciLifeLab Stockholm.</em>. Neutralization: To yield one-half maximal inhibition [ND<span style=font-size: 16px,>50] of the biological activity of Rat IL-6 (0.1 ng/ml), a concentration of 0.12-0.18 µg/ml of this antibody is required.. Reconstitution: Centrifuge vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml.
