Vasopressin (AVP) Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Specifications

Product Data
Applications	ELISA
Recommend Dilution	This antibody has been tested and validated in ELISA against (Arg8)- Vasopressin. Other applications like immunohistochemistry (IHC), FACS or Western Blot may work as well. Optimal dilutions should be determined by the end user.
Reactivity	Human, Mammalian
Host	Rabbit
Clonality	Polyclonal
Immunogen	Synthetic peptide H-Cys-Tyr-Phe-Gln-Asn-Cys-Pro-Arg-Gly-NH2, (Disulfide bond)
Formulation	This polyclonal antibody is supplied as a lyophilized powder. Each vial contains enough antiserum for 500 RIA tubes. The powder should be rehydrated with 50ml of RIA buffer. Upon reconstitution to 50ml total volume, the solution contains 0.1M sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.4), 0.05M NaCl, 0.1% BSA, 0.01% NaN3, and 0.1% Triton X-100. Store at 4° - 8°C. This should ensure antibody stability for approximately one month.
Concentration	N/A
Conjugation	Unconjugated
Storage Condition	Original vial: at least one year at 4° - 8°C from date of delivery. Minimize repeated thawing and freezing of the antiserum by freezing aliquots at -20°C or below.
Gene Name	arginine vasopressin
Database Link	Entrez Gene 551 Human UniProt ID P01185
Background	(Arg8)-Vasopressin or argipressin is an antidiuretic peptide hormone that plays a key role in maintaining plasma osmolality. The peptide released from the posterior pituitary gland promotes renal tubular reabsorption of water. In high concentration, it also raises blood pressure by inducing moderate vasoconstriction. Argipressin is involved in the control of circadian rhythm, thermoregulation, and ACTH release in the brain. This antibody was generated by immunization of rabbits with (Arg8)-Vasopressin coupled to a carrier protein.
Synonyms	ADH; ARVP; AVP-NPII; AVRP; neurohypophyseal; VP
