This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.
Immunogen
This IL18 antibody is generated from a rabbit immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 155-188 AA from the C-terminal region of human IL18.
Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09 % (W/V) 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.
