Monoclonal Anti-α₁-Acid Glycoprotein antibody produced in mouse

Monoclonal Anti-α1-Acid Glycoprotein (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the AGP-47 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice. α1-Acid Glycoprotein (AGP) is an acute-phase plasma protein. This protein is mainly produced in the hepatocytes. AGP1 gene is mapped on the human chromosome at 9q32.

human α₁-acid glycoprotein (AGP).

α1-Acid Glycoprotein (AGP) associates with haptoglobin and C-reactive protein, which indicates inflammation. Higher levels of AGP is associated with various inflammatory diseases, trauma, malignancies, myocardial infarction, rheumatoid arthritis, after major surgery, and in cases of chronic pain. This protein is capable of binding and transporting basic and neutral drugs.

Recognizes an epitope located on the 44 kDa subunit of denatured-reduced AGP using the immunoblotting technique. It does not cross react with human serum amyloid P component, human haptoglobin, human C-reactive protein, and human IgG.

The product is provided as ascites fluid with 0.1% sodium azide as a preservative.

For continuous use, store at 2-8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, the solution may be frozen in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Storage in "frost-free" freezers is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use.
