  • Application Notes
    Each Investigator should determine their own optimal working dilution for specific applications.
    Restrictions
    For Research Use only
  • Buffer
    Supplied in 0.1 M PBS, 0.1 M NaCl, pH 7.4 with 0.1 % NaN3.
    Preservative
    Sodium azide
    Precaution of Use
    WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.
    Handling Advice
    Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

    Background
    Alpha-fetoprotein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AFP gene. This gene encodes alpha-fetoprotein, a major plasma protein produced by the yolk sac and the liver during fetal life. The protein is thought to be the fetal counterpart of serum albumin, and the alpha-fetoprotein and albumin genes are present in tandem on chromosome 4. Alpha-fetoprotein is found in monomeric as well as dimeric and trimeric forms, and binds copper, nickel, fatty acids and bilirubin.
    Description: Human cord serum.
    Alternative Names: alpha-Fetoprotein protein, alpha-Fetoprotein antigen
