      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:  Purified Rat Anti-Mouse/Anti-Human IL-5 (Cat. No.554393, clone TRFK5) has been reported to be useful as a capture antibody for sandwich ELISA for measuring mouse or human IL-5. For a mouse IL-5 ELISA, purified TRFK5 antibody can be paired with Biotin Rat Anti-Mouse IL-5 antibody (Cat. No. 554397, clone TRFK4) as the detection antibody, with recombinant mouse IL-5 (Cat. No. 554581) as the standard. For a human IL-5 ELISA, purified TRFK5 antibody can be paired with the Biotin Rat Anti-Human IL-5 antibody (Cat. No. 554491, clone JES1-5A10) as the detecting antibody, with recombinant human IL-5 (Cat. No. 554606) as the standard.  For measuring mouse or human IL-5 in complex biological samples, such as serum or plasma, investigators are highly encouraged to use the BD OptEIA™ Mouse IL-5 ELISA Set (Cat. No. 555236) or the BD OptEIA™ Human IL-5 ELISA Set (Cat. No 555202), respectively.

      Down Arrow Up Arrow
      TRFK5

      The TRFK5 antibody reacts with mouse interleukin-5 (IL-5) and cross-reacts with human IL-5. The TRFK5 antibody has been reported to cross react with IL-5 from rhesus monkey. This is a neutralizing antibody.

      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.
