Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. This preparation contains no preservatives, thus it should be handled under aseptic conditions.

Recommended Assay Procedures

ELISA (IL-12 p70 Detection):  Biotin Rat Anti-Mouse IL-12 (p40/p70) antibody (Clone C17.8, Cat. No. 554476) is useful as a detection antibody for a sandwich ELISA for specifically measuring mouse IL-12 p70 protein levels. Biotinylated C17.8 antibody can be paired with the Purified Rat Anti-Mouse IL-12 p70 antibody (Clone 9A5, Cat. No. 554658) as the capture antibody and with recombinant mouse IL-12 p70 (Cat. No.554592) as the standard.  For measuring mouse IL-12 p70 in complex biological fluids, such as serum or plasma, investigators are highly encouraged to use the BD OptEIA™ Mouse IL-12 p70 ELISA Set (Cat. No. 555256).

ELISA (IL-12 p40 Detection):  Biotin Rat Anti-Mouse IL-12 (p40/p70) antibody (Clone C17.8, Cat. No. 554476) is useful as a detection antibody for a sandwich ELISA measuring IL-12 p40 protein levels (free p40 monomer as well as p40 complexes as homodimer or heterodimer). Biotinylated C17.8 antibody can be paired with the Purified Rat Anti-Mouse IL-12 p40/p70 antibody (Clone C15.6, Cat. No. 551219) as the capture antibody, and with recombinant mouse IL-12 p70 protein (Cat. No.554592) or IL-12 p40 protein (Cat. No. 554594) as the standard.  For measuring mouse IL-12 p40 in complex biological fluids, such as serum or plasma, investigators are highly encouraged to use the BD OptEIA™ Mouse IL-12 p40 ELISA Set (Cat. No. 555165).

C17.8

The C17.8 antibody reacts with the free p40 monomer of IL-12 as well as the p40 subunit complexed as homodimer or complexed with p35 as a p70 heterodimer. Clone C17.8 has also been shown to be cross-reactive with mouse IL-23, which also contains the p40 subunit. The immunogen used to generate C17.8 hybridoma was recombinant mouse IL-12 p70.

NA/LE
NA/LE refers to the culture and purification methods and buffer used to produce purified antibodies with no azide and low endotoxin: Aqueous buffered solution containing no preservative, 0.2µm sterile filtered. Endotoxin level is ≤0.01 EU/µg (≤0.001 ng/µg) of protein as determined by the LAL assay.NA/LE are perfectly suited to be used in culture or in vivo (for nonhuman studies) for functional assays — blocking, neutralizing, activation or depletion — where the presence of azide may damage cells or exogenous endotoxin may signal or activate cells.
