Description

General description

Designed for immunoprecipitation applications. This product is blocked with BSA to reduce non-specific binding and cannot be used for purification.

Protein G PLUS/Protein A-Agarose mixture specifically formulated for immunoprecipitation.

Application

Immunoprecipitation (see comments)

Physical form

33% slurry in PBS.

Other Notes

Agarose solution is supplied ready to use. Protein G Plus/Protein A Agarose immunoprecipitation reagent is blocked with BSA and should not be used for immunoglobulin purification or covalent cross-linking. For immunoprecipitation reactions 15 µl of solution per µg primary antibody is recommended. Preclearing will minimize extra bands resulting from nonspecific precipitation. To preclear, add to the sample 20 µl of agarose conjugate and 1 µg of normal IgG from the same species as the immunoprecipitating antibody. When immunoblotting is used for detection, some secondary antibodies can react nonspecifically with BSA or other proteins present at high concentrations in the sample. This can be eliminated by reducing the concentration of secondary antibody.
