Recommended Usage |
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by intracellular immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. Test size products are transitioning from 20 µl to 5 µl per test. Please check your vial or your CoA to find the suggested use of this reagent per million cells in 100 µl staining volume or per 100 µl of whole blood. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application. Read more at www.biolegend.com/testsize regarding the test size change. " |

Application Notes |
ELISA1-3 or ELISPOT4-6 Capture: The purified JES1-39D10 antibody is useful as the capture antibody in a sandwich ELISA or ELISPOT, when used in conjunction with the biotinylated JES1-5A10 (Cat. No. 501002/501005) antibody as the detecting antibody. The LEAF™ purified antibody is suggested for ELISPOT capture. Flow Cytometry7: The fluorochrome-labelled JES1-39D10 antibody is useful for intracellular immunofluorescent staining and flow cytometric analysis to identify IL-5 -producing cells within mixed cell populations. For intracellular cytokine staining protocol, please visit www.biolegend.com and click on the support section. Neutralization1: The LEAF™ purified antibody (Endotoxin <0.1 EU/μg, Azide-Free, 0.2 μm filtered) is recommended for neutralization of human IL-4 bioactivity (Cat. No. 500907). Additional reported applications (for the relevant formats) include: Western blotting, immunohistochemical staining8,9 of paraformaldehyde-fixed, saponin-treated frozen tissue sections, and immunocytochemistry. Note: For testing human IL-5 in serum or plasma, BioLegend's ELISA Max™ Sets (Cat. No. 430401 to 430406) are specially developed and recommended. |

Description |
IL-5 is a homodimeric, disulphide-linked protein produced by T-cells. Monomeric human IL-5 is a 126 amino acid protein with a reported molecular weight of 26 kD for the homodimeric protein. Mouse and human IL-5 are approximately 70% identical. IL-5 has been shown to promote the growth of immature hematopoietic BFU-E progenitors, stimulate the activation and differentiation of eosinophils, and promote the generation of cytotoxic lymphocytes. The JES1-39D10 antibody can neutralize the bioactivity of natural or recombinant IL-5. |
Storage |
The antibody solution should be stored undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. |
