Somatostatin (SST) Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Specifications

Product Data
Applications	ELISA
Recommend Dilution	This antibody has been tested and validated in ELISA against Somatostatin-14. Other applications like immunohistochemistry (IHC), FACS or Western Blot may work as well. Optimal dilutions should be determined by the end user.
Reactivity	Human, Mammalian
Host	Rabbit
Clonality	Polyclonal
Immunogen	Synthetic peptide H-Ala-Gly-Cys-Lys-Asn-Phe-Phe-Trp-Lys-Thr-Phe- Thr-Ser-Cys-OH (Disulfide bond) coupled to carrier protein.
Formulation	This polyclonal antibody is supplied as a lyophilized powder. The powder should be rehydrated with 50ml of RIA buffer. Upon reconstitution to 50ml total volume, the solution contains 0.1M sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.4), 0.05M NaCl, 0.1% BSA, 0.01% NaN3, and 0.1% Triton X-100. Store at 4° - 8°C. This should ensure antibody stability for approximately one month.

Background	Somatostatin-14 is a naturally occurring 14-residue peptide. It is found in the gastrointestinal tract and the pancreas, as well as in the central and peripheral nervous systems. Somatostatin-14 is a cyclic oligopeptide, which in mammals is found as a shorter 14-mer and a longer 28-mer. Because of its short biological half- life (few minutes), analogues have been developed for therapeutic application, such as Octreotide. This antibody was generated by immunization of rabbits with Somatostatin-14 coupled to a carrier protein.
Synonyms	SMST; somatostatin; somatostatin-14; somatostatin-28
