Immunogen
Biotin-KLH conjugate
Specificity
Specificity and reactivity are determined by Ouchterlony Double Diffusion and immunoelectrophoresis versus the biotin-carrier protein complex. No reactivity is observed versus the carrier protein.
Physical form
Solution in 0.05 M Tris, pH 8.0, containing 10 mM glycine, 1 mM MgCl2, 1% bovine serum albumin, 50% glycerol, and 15 mM sodium azide
Application
In some applications, localization of biotinylated probes with avidin produces high background levels. Anti-biotin reagents may be substituted for avidin to decrease non-specific binding.
