DescriptionAdditionalDescription DetailsDescription:Mouse monoclonal antibody to human serum amyloid A (SAA)Purification:Protein G affinity purifiedProduct Type:Primary antibody- Detection antibody in matched antibody pairTarget Protein:Human SAAImmunogen:Highly purified recombinant human SAA (MW: 12 kDa)Fusion Myeloma:Sp2/0-Ag14Specificity:This monoclonal antibody reacts with natural and recombinant human SAA.Species Reacitvity: Human, others not testedCross-Reactivity: Does not show any cross-reaction with other human cytokines or growth factors tested such as IL-1β, IL-8, MCAF, TGF-β and EGF.Host / Isotype: Mouse, IgG2a KappaFormulation:Lyophilized from a solution in 0.01M PBS, pH 7.2Reconstitution:Double distilled water is recommended to reconstitute the antibody.Storage: Store at -20oCResearch Area:Acute phase protein. Inflammatory reaction.Background:SAA is an acute phase protein and a sensitive inflammatory marker. Cytokines such as IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-alpha stimulates hepatocytes to produce and release SAA. In acute phase, SAA in blood can increase to more than 1,000 folds of normal level. Prolonged and repeated elevation of SAA results in abnormal deposition of amyloid proteins in organ or tissue in insoluble beta pleated form. Determination of SAA levels is important for assessment of renal allograft rejection, estimation of tissue damage caused by myocardial infarction and severe angina, and diagnosis of inflammation in cystic fibrosis patients and in patients infected with virus.Application:ELISA:This antibody can be used as a detection antibody in sandwich ELISA applications for human SAA detection in combination with a capture antibody (Clone 115, Cat. No.: C40028A).Western Blot: The antibody, when used at concentration of 0.1-0.5 μg/mL will allow visualization of 100ng/lane of recombinant human SAA.References:1.
