Name
TNF-alpha, Human, mAb T1
Catalog nr
HM2024 (lot number and expiry date are indicated on the label)
Short description
The antibody reacts with free soluble (17 kDa) and membrane (26 kDa) human TNF-alpha. The antibody inhibits the biological activity of both forms. It does not react with receptor bound TNF-alpha. It can be a useful tool to discriminate between the membrane form of TNF expressed on producer cells and the proteolytically cleaved, soluble TNF-alpha bound to its cognate cell membrane receptors (T...

Description
The antibody reacts with free soluble (17 kDa) and membrane (26 kDa) human TNF-alpha. The antibody inhibits the biological activity of both forms. It does not react with receptor bound TNF-alpha. It can be a useful tool to discriminate between the membrane form of TNF expressed on producer cells and the proteolytically cleaved, soluble TNF-alpha bound to its cognate cell membrane receptors (TNF-RI and TNF-RII). For this purpose we recommend to use this antibody in combination with the anti-TNF-alpha antibody HM2026, which recognizes soluble, membrane and receptor bound TNF-alpha.
Formulation
1 ml (100 µg/ml) 0.2 µm filtered antibody solution in PBS, containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin.
Species
Mouse IgG1
Application
The monoclonal antibody T1 can be used for inhibition of the biological activity of TNF-alpha. Furthermore, the monoclonal antibody T1 is useful for immuno precipitation, immuno assays, flow cytometry and Western blotting.
Use
For immunohistology, flow cytometry and Western blotting dilutions to be used depend on detection system applied. It is recommended that users test the reagent and determine their own optimal dilutions. The typical starting working dilution is 1:50. For neutralization of biological activity in vitro dilutions have to be made according to the amounts of TNF-alpha to be inactivated.
Storage and stability
Product should be stored at 4°C. Under recommended storage conditions, product is stable for one year.
