Monoclonal anti-calbindin D-28k is a mouse IgG1 produced by hybridization of mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from mice immunized with calbindin D-28k purified from chicken gut (1). The antibody was evaluated for specificity and potency: a) by indirect immunofluorescent or immunoperoxidase labelling as well as Biotin-Avidin labeling of cryostate or vibratome-sections of 4 % paraformaldehyde fixed tissue; b) by immunoenzymatic labelling of immunoblots; c) by radioimmunoassay. 

The product is a monoclonal antibody (McAB) against calbindin D-28k, a calcium-binding protein of the EF-hand family related to calmodulin and troponin-C

Immunohistochemistry: 1:5'000 - 1:10'000 with the avidin-biotin method.

Immunoblots: 1:100 - 1:1'000 with an indirect peroxidase method. 

We recommend that the optimal dilutions be determined by titration experiments.

 For long storage, keep at - 80°C (or at least - 20°C). For continuous use, keep at 4°C (with 0.01% Na-azide). Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
