Serum Diluent; General Serum Diluent; Serum Diluent diluent
Ordering
For Research Use Only!
Form/Format
Supplied at 1X.
Application Notes
1. Prepare standards and samples in General Serum Diluent.
2. Serum samples should generally be diluted at least 1:50 in order to minimize backgrounds caused by non-specific antibody binding.

Related Product Information for Serum Diluent diluent
Description: General Serum Diluent is formulated for diluting goat, rabbit, mouse, avian, and human sera, as well as mouse ascites fluid and cell culture media, for testing in sandwich ELISA configurations. General Serum Diluent can also be used for dilution of many types of serum samples, including mammalian and chicken, tested in antigen-down ELISA formats.

Background: General Serum Diluent is formulated for diluting goat, rabbit, mouse, avian, and human sera, as well as mouse ascites fluid and cell culture media, for testing in sandwich ELISA configurations. This product can also be used for dilution of many types of serum samples, including mammalian and chicken, tested in antigen-down ELISA formats.

Hyper-immunized serum samples contain nonspecific IgG antibody that may interfere with the titration. Proprietary additives have been incorporated into the General Serum Diluent formulation to minimize nonspecific binding interactions of the nonspecific IgG in the samples, thus decreasing assay background noise. General Serum Diluent may also be used for dilutions of the antigen standard for use in antibody capture sandwich ELISA formats.

Product Notes

The Serum Diluent (Catalog #AAA258402) is a Diluent and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. 1. Prepare standards and samples in General Serum Diluent. 2. Serum samples should generally be diluted at least 1:50 in order to minimize backgrounds caused by non-specific antibody binding. 3. To dilute the sample 1:100, add 1 part sample to 99 parts General Serum Diluent. For example, add 10 muL sample to 990 muL sample diluent for a total of 1,000 muL. 4. Highly concentrated samples may need to be diluted 1:1,000 or more. 5. Once diluted, run the assay according to the specific ELISA protocol. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Serum Diluent for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Serum Diluent, Diluent" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
