RELMb specific antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and then biotinylated.
Immunogen
Produced from sera of rabbits pre-immunized with highly pure (>98%) recombinant mRELMβ,. Murine RELMβ, specific antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and then biotinylated.
Direct: To detect mRELMb by direct ELISA (using 100 μ,L/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.25 - 1.0 μ,g/mL of this antibody is required. This biotinylated polyclonal antibody, in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant mRELMb. Sandwich: To detect mRELMb by sandwich ELISA (using 100 μ,L/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.25 - 1.0 μ,g/mL of this antibody is required.
Western Blot: To detect mRELMb by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1 - 0.2 μ,g/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant mRELMb is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.

Background
RELM beta, is a secreted protein, a probable hormone, expressed only in the gastrointestinal tract, particularly the colon. The biological functions of RELM beta and its molecular targets, are not fully known but, it has been suggested that it plays a regulatory role during inflammation and may also act to establish links among adipose tissue, the intestine and the liver. Interestingly the molecular structure of RELM beta is highly homologous to that of the adipose-derived cytokine Resistin and RELM alpha.
