Application Details

Application Notes: ELISADirect: To detect Rat CNTF by indirect ELISA (using 100 ml/well antibody solution) aconcentration of 0.5-2.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purifiedantibody, in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of atleast 0.2-0.4 ng/well of recombinant Rat CNTF. Sandwich: To detect Rat CNTF by sandwich ELISA (using 100 ml/well antibody solution) aconcentration of 0.25-1.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. The Biotinylated antibody inconjunction with Anti-Rat CNTF (PP030P1 or PP030P2) as a Capture antibody, allows thedetection of at least 0.2-0.4 ng/well of recombinant Rat CNTF. Western BlotTo detect Rat CNTF by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of0.1-0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limitfor recombinant Rat CNTF is 1.5-3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducingconditions.
Other applications not tested.
Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Target Details for CNTF

Target: CNTF (Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor (CNTF))

Alternative Name: CNTF

Background: CNTF is a potent neural factor that was originally characterized as a vital factor for the survival of chick ciliary neurons in vitro. CNTF is also important for the survival of other neural cell types including primary sensory neurons, motor neurons, basal forebrain neurons and type 2 astrocytes. CNTF is highly conserved across species and exhibits cross-species bioactivity.Synonyms: Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor
