Specifications

Product Data

• Applications: ELISA
• Recommended Dilution: This antibody has been tested and validated in ELISA against (Arg8)- Vasopressin. 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: Guinea Pig
• Clonality: Polyclonal
• Immunogen: Synthetic peptide H-Cys-Tyr-Phe-Gln-Asn-Cys-Pro-Arg-Gly-NH2, (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 551 Human
  UniProt ID P01185
• Background: (Arg8)-Vasopressin or argipressin is an antidiuretic peptide hormone that plays a key role in maintaining plasma osmolality. The peptide released from the posterior pituitary gland promotes renal tubular reabsorption of water. In high concentration, it also raises blood pressure by inducing moderate vasoconstriction. Argipressin is involved in the control of circadian rhythm, thermoregulation, and ACTH release in the brain. This antibody was generated by immunization of guinea pigs with (Arg8)-Vasopressin coupled to a carrier protein.
• Synonyms: ADH; ARVP; AVP-NPII; AVRP; neurohypophyseal; VP
