Description
Description
Calcitonin is a hormone. Mature calcitonin is composed of 116 amino acids and plays an important role in calcium homeostasis. Calcitonin is mainly produced by parafollicular C cells of the thyroid and the endocrine cells of the intestine and lung. Calcitonin causes a rapid but short-lived drop in the level of calcium and phosphate in blood by promoting the incorporation of those ions in the bones.
Storage / Stability
The antibody is stable for at least 1 year from the date of receipt when stored at -20°C to -70°C. Reconstituted antibody can also be aliquotted and stored at 4°C for 1 month or at -20°C to -70°C in a manual defrost freezer for many months without detectable loss activity. Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
Specificity
The antibody can specifically bind to its immunogen, and did not show any cross reactivity with unrelated antigens in ELISA. It also could specifically recognize recombinant protein, cellular protein as assayed by Western Blot. Cross reactivity with mouse and rat procalcitonin has not yet been tested.
Expiration:
12 months from the date of shipment when stored properly.
