• Applicable Applications for anti-TAS1R2 antibody: ELISA (EL/EIA), Western Blot (WB)
• Application Notes: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot.; Dilution: Western Blot: 1-10ug/ml for affinity pure antibody using ECL.; ELISA: 0.5-1ug/ml for affinity pure. Control peptide can be used to coat ELISA plates at 1ug/ml.
• Immunogen: A 19 AA Peptide sequence near the C-terminus of rat TR2(1). The peptide was coupled to KLH
• Preparation and Storage: May be stored at 4 degree C for short-term only. For long-term storage, store at -20 degree C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degree C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.

Related Product Information for anti-TAS1R2 antibody

Higher vertebrates are believed to possess at least five basic tastes: Sweet, bitter, sour, salty, and unami (the taste of monosodium glutamate). Taste receptor cells that may selectively reside in various parts of the tongue and respond to different tastants and perceive these taste modalities. Circumvallate papillae, found at the very back of the tongue, are particularly sensitive to biter substances. Foliate papillae, found at the posterior lateral edge of the tongue, are sensitive to sour and bitter. Fungiform papillae at the front of the tongue specialize in sweet taste.
