This product recognizes both human platelet-derived and recombinant TGF-beta1 in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). This product demonstrates neutralising activity against TGF-beta1 in cell proliferation assays. Removal of sodium azide is recommended prior to use in functional assays. This product has been demonstrated to react with dimeric (25kD) or monomeric (12.5kD) molecules of natural TGF-beta1 under non-reducing and reducing conditions respectively.
Store at +4 °C or at -20 °C if preferred.
This product should be stored undiluted.
Storage in frost free freezers is not recommended. 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 6 months after receipt.
