Product Note
Some class specific anti-collagens may be specific for three-dimensional epitopes which may result in diminished reactivity with denatured collagen or formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded tissues. This antibody reacts with most mammalian Type II collagens and has expected cross-reactivity with Type IV and VI and negligible cross reactivity to Type I, III and V collagens.
Form
Liquid
Buffer
20mM Potassium Phosphate, 150mM NaCl
Preservative
0.01% Sodium azide
Storage
Store as concentrated solution. Centrifuge briefly prior to opening vial. For short-term storage (1-2 weeks), store at 4ºC. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20ºC or below. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Concentration
1 mg/ml (Please refer to the vial label for the specific concentration.)
Antigen Species
Human, Bovine
Immunogen
Collagen Type II from human knee cartilage and bovine nasal cartilage.
Purification
Purified by antigen-affinity chromatography.
Prepared by immunoaffinity chromatography using immobilized antigens followed by extensive cross-adsorption against other collagens, human serum proteins and non-collagen extracellular matrix proteins to remove any unwanted specificities. This product has been sterile filtered.
Conjugation
Unconjugated
RRID
AB_374261

Background
Collagens are highly conserved throughout evolution and are characterized by an uninterrupted ""Glycine-X-Y"" triplet repeat that is a necessary part of the triple helical structure. For these reasons it is often extremely difficult to generate antibodies with specificities to collagens. The development of type specific antibodies is dependent on NON-DENATURED three-dimensional epitopes. This preparation results in a native conformation of the protein.
