{"product_id":"biolegend-503304","title":"Biolegend, 503304, Biotin anti-human NGAL (Lipocalin-2) Antibody, 500μg","description":"\u003cp\u003eNGAL (lipocalin-2) is a lipocalin family protein that plays important roles in innate immunity, inflammation, and atherosclerosis. It was originally identified as a 25 kD protein covalently bound to gelatinase from human neutrophils. NGAL is a critical component of innate immunity because of its ability to bind iron-siderophore complexes and limit bacterial growth. It is also produced by injured epithelia and is one of the most promising markers for renal epithelial injury and cardiovascular disease (CVD).\u003cbr\u003e\n500μg\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Human\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Rat\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Recombinant human NGAL\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide.\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and conjugated with biotin under optimal conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: 0.5 mg\/ml\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C. Do not freeze.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication: ELISA Detection - Quality tested\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by ELISA. For ELISA detection applications, a concentration of 0.15 µg\/mL is recommended. To obtain a linear standard curve, serial dilutions of NGAL recombinant protein ranging from 2500 to 39.1 pg\/mL is recommended for each ELISA plate. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication Notes: ELISA Detection: The biotinylated M049D6 antibody is useful as a detection antibody for a sandwich ELISA assay, when used in conjunction with purified M0415B7 (Cat. No. 661902) antibody as the capture antibody. Note: For testing human NGAL in cell culture supernatant, serum, plasma, urine, saliva, and other biological fluids, BioLegend's LEGEND MAX™ Kits (Cat. No. 443407 \u0026amp; 443408) are specially developed and recommended.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication References(PubMed link indicates BioLegend citation): Iqbal N, et al. 2013. Expert Opin.
