murine MAb against outer surface lipoprotein BBA66 of Borrelia burgdorferi, Clone A66-EE
Description
Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne disease in North America and Europe. The causative agent Borrelia burgdorferi is a bacterium that is maintained in an enzoonotic cycle between Ixodes ticks and a large range of mammals. Several Borrelia burgdorferi proteins are upregulated by temperature- and/or mammalian host-specific signals as the spirochete is transmitted from ticks to mammals. BBA66 outer surface lipoprotein was found to be up-regulated during transmission and is immunogenic in mammals.
Properties
The monoclonal antibody ADG0120L (clone A66-EE) is a murine monoclonal antibody, subclass IgG1 recognizing BBA66. Mice were immunized with rec. BBA66 of Borrelia burgdorferi. The antibody has been purified from cell culture supernatant using Protein G affinity chromatography.
Presentation
Screw capped vial containing 1 mg of purified antibody in PBS pH 7.4. The IgG concentration is given on the vial label. Spin the vial briefly before opening.
Storage and Stability
Store the antibody at 2°-8°C. For long-term storage the antibody should be aliquoted and stored at –20°C or colder. It is recommended to avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
Applications
ELISA
The antibody can be used as capture antibody in ELISAs. An antibody concentration of 1-10 µg/ml is recommended.
Westernblot
The antibody is suitable for Western blot analysis, detecting native and recombinant BBA66 following SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions. A primary antibody concentration of 1-10 µg/mL is recommended.
Immunocytochemistry
The antibody can be used for immunocytochemistry on paraformaldehyde fixed spirochetes.
