CCL3
Reactivity: Human
WB, ELISA
Host: Mouse
Polyclonal
unconjugated
Application Notes
Neutralization: To yield one-half maximal inhibition [ND50] of the biological activity of hMIP-1α, (100 ng/mL), a concentration of 5.0-10.0 μ,g/mL of this antibody is required.
ELISA:
In a sandwich ELISA (assuming 100 μ,L/well), a concentration of 2.0-4.0 μ,g/mL of this antibody will detect at least 2000 pg/mL of recombinant human MIP-1α, when used with our biotinylated antigen affinity purified anti-human MIP-1α, (XP-5232Bt) as the detection antibody at a concentration of approximately 1.0-2.0 μ,g/mL.
Western Blot:
To detect hMIP-1α, by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 2.0-4.0 μ,g/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant hMIP-1α, is 1.0-2.0 ng/lane, under non-reducing conditions.

Background
Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 1 alpha and MIP1 beta, two closely related but distinct proteins, were originally co-purified from medium conditioned by a LPS-stimulated murine macrophage cell line. Mature mouse MIP1 alpha shares approximately 77 % and 70 % amino acid identity with human MIP1 alpha and mouse MIP1 beta, respectively. MIP1 proteins are expressed primarily in T cells, B cells, and monocytes after antigen or mitogen stimulation.
