Application Note
Suggested starting dilutions are as follows: WB: 1:1000-1:10000, ICC/IF: 1:100-1:1000, IP: 1:100-1:500, ELISA. Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal working dilutions should be determined experimentally by the end user.
Specificity/Sensitivity
ELISA: The anti HA diluted 1:70,000 gave an O.D.=1.0 in a 15 minute reaction against peptide conjugated with a different carrier than used for anti peptide purification. HRP conjugated Goat anti rabbit IgG was used and TMB was the substrate.

Background
The HA tag is derived from an epitope of the influenza hemagglutinin protein, which has been extensively used as a general epitope tag in expression vectors.
