Immunohistochemistry: This antibody stained 4% PFA, paraffin-embedded sections of Trichuris muris infected murine tissue. The primary antibody was incubated at 0.20 ug/mL overnight at 4°C and the secondary antibody was a cyanine-3 conjugated Donkey anti-Rabbit (Jackson ImmunoResearch). Heat induced antigen retrieval with a 100mM citric acid was used. Information and photo are courtesy of David Artis, University of Pennsylvania. Optimal concentrations and conditions may vary. ELISA: To detect mLeptin by sandwich ELISA (using 100 ul/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5-2 ug/ml of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with Biotinylated Anti-Murine Leptin (
LS-C104759) as a detection antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2-0.4 ng/well of recombinant mLeptin. Western Blot: To detect mLeptin by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1-0.2 ug/ml. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant mLeptin is 1.5-3 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.
