Immunogen: Ricin, RTA subunit
Sub class: IgG1 Host: Mouse Clonality: Monoclonal Purity: Purified IgG in PBS pH 7.4 with mannitol. Format: Lyophilized Quantity: 200 µg Reconstitution: For reconstitution add 200 µl of sterile water Storage: Store at -70°C; once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Please remember to spin the tubes briefly prior to opening them to avoid any losses that might occur from material adhering to the cap or sides of the tube. , For storage at 4°C sodium azide can be added Tested applications: ELISA (ELISA), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Recommended dilution: The optimal working dilution should be determined by the investigator, for specific application Expected | apparent MW: 29.8 kDa - Reactivity

Confirmed reactivity: Ricinus communis
Predicted reactivity: Ricinus communis Not reactive in: No confirmed exceptions from predicted reactivity are currently known - Additional Information
-
Additional information: Antibodies have been purified by affinity chromatography on Protein G from tissue culture supernatant and lyophilized from solution containing: mannitol 1%, dextran 1%, NaCl 100mM, sodium phosphate 10 mM, pH 7.5. If required, mannitol can be removed either by dialysis or by chromatography using mini columns Sephadex G50 fine.
The concentration can be measured by absorbance at 280 nm (1.35 for 1 mg/ml) or by Bradford methodRicin detection limit is 5 ng/ml, signal-to-noise ratio is 15-50 up to 100 ng/ml
Epitope recognized by this antibody is located on the surface of RTA subunit and not accessible in intact ricin molecule.Suggested protocol can be found here.
Additional information (application): Detected epitope is located on the surface of RTA subunit not accssible in intact ricin molecule, This antibody does not cross-react to whole ricin molecule - Background
-
Background: Ricin is a protein found in castor bean (Ricinus communis) acting as protein synthesis inhibitor. It is a toxin involved in plant defence. A chain of ricin can inactivate few thousands of ribosomes per minute. B chain facilitates the entry of A chain into the cell.
