Specificity

This product recognizes recombinant and native human granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF).

Human Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a 14.6kDa glycoprotein, which is produced by T cells, macrophages, fibroblasts and endothelial cells. GM-CSF is involved in the stimulation of proliferation and differentiation of granulocyte and macrophage progenitor cells.

The neutralisation dose (ND50) of this batch, as determined by the proliferation of TF-1 cells, is approximately 0.3-0.5 µg/ml in the presence of 0.5 ng/ml of recombinant human GM-CSF. The ND50 may vary depending on conditions.

Storage/Stability

Store at -20 °C only.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended.
This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
If stored in this manner, this product is stable for 18 months after receipt.
