Working concentrations for specific applications should be determined by the investigator. The appropriate concentrations may be affected by antigen concentration, the sensitivity of the method of detection, temperature, the length of the incubations, and other factors. The suitability of this antibody for applications other than those listed below has not been determined. The following concentration ranges are recommended starting points for this product. Immunofluorescent staining: 1-4 µg/mL Flow cytometry: 1-4 µg/mL Other applications: user-optimized
Restrictions
For Research Use only
Format
Lyophilized
Reconstitution
Reconstitute the lyophilized antibody with deionized water (or equivalent) to a final antibody concentration of 0.5 mg/mL.
Concentration
0.5 mg/mL
Buffer
lyophilized with PBS, pH 7.4, containing 10 mg/mL BSA and 0.02 % sodium azide.
Preservative
Sodium azide
Precaution of Use
WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.
Handling Advice
Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Storage
-20 °C
Storage Comment
The lyophilized product remains stable up to 2 year at -20 °C from date of receipt. Upon reconstitution, it can be stored for 2-3 weeks at 2-8 °C or for up to 12 months at -20 °C or below.
The HA tag is a polypeptide with the amino acid sequence YPYDVPDYA that can be added to a target protein using recombinant DNA technology. It can be fused to the N-terminus or C-terminus of the protein to facilitate detection and purification. An anti-HA tag antibody is a useful tool for the analysis of HA-tagged proteins.THETM HA Tag Antibody [iFluor 647], mAb, Mouse is THETM HA Tag Antibody (A01244) conjugated with iFluor 647 under optimal conditions with an F/P ratio of 3-6. It is suitable for detecting the expression level of HA-tagged proteins. iFluor 647 is a bright and photostable fluorescent dye. It is an excellent alternative to Alexa Fluor 647.
