F Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody [Clone ID: RSHZ19 (Felvizumab)]

Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	RSHZ19 (Felvizumab)
Applications	ELISA, FN
Reactivity	Respiratory Syncytial Virus
Host	Rabbit
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	This antibody was prepared by the humanization of an F protein-specific murine MAb, RSV19. More specifically, molecular techniques were used to insert the complementarity determining regions from murine RSV19 into a human IgG1 heavy and k light chain-variable domain framework.
Specificity	This antibody is specific for the conserved fusion (F) protein of RSV. Though shown to be safe and well-tolerated (Everitt, 1996) and protective against RSV infection in BALB/c mice and cotton rats (Wyde, 1995), this antibody did not demonstrate efficacy in a Phase 3 study (Reichert, 2008). In in vitro studies, palivizumab, another humanized Mab specific for the F protein of RSV, was 4 to 5-fold more potent than felvizumab in neutralising RSV (Scott, 1999).
Formulation	PBS with 0.02% Proclin 300.
Concentration	lot specific
Conjugation	Unconjugated
Storage Condition	Please store at 4°C for up to 3 months. For longer storage, aliquot and store at -20°C. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.
Note	This chimeric rabbit antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Human IgG1 format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
