Product Data

• Applications: ELISA
• Recommended 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.
• Reactivities: 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.

  Entrez Gene 6750 Human
  UniProt ID P61278
• 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
