{{/_source.additionalInfo}}Anti-KLH | Keyhole limpet hemocyanin
(Cat#: AS99 001)
Description
- Immunogen: Purified keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH), whole molecule,
- Host: Rabbit
- Clonality: Polyclonal
- Purity: Immunogen affinity purified serum in PBS pH 7.4.
- Format: Lyophilized
- Quantity: 50 µg
- Reconstitution: For reconstitution add 50 µl of sterile water
- Storage: Store lyophilized/reconstituted at -20°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.
- Tested applications: ELISA (ELISA), Immunolocalization (IL), Western blot (WB)
- Recommended dilutions: 1: 10 000 (ELISA), 1: 10 000 (WB), 1: 1000 (IL)
- Not reactive in: No confirmed exceptions from predicted reactivity are currently known
- Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) is a large cooper-containing protein consisting of subunits with MW of 400 kDa. It is found in the hemolymph of the sea mollusk Megathura crenulata. This extracellular respiratory protein has many immunostimulatory properties, including the ability to enhance the host’s immune response by interacting with T cells, monocytes, macrophages, and polymorphonuclear lymphocytes. Since its discovery, KLH has been used primarily as a carrier for vaccines and antigens and as adjuvant treatment in regimens such as antimicrobial therapy.

An Antigen Expressed During Plant Vascular Development Crossreacts with Antibodies Towards KLH (Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin). J of Histochem & Cytochem. 50:999-1003.
- Protein present in plant vascular tissue (xylem and vascular cambium) is detected by anti-KLH antibodies (Höglund et al. 2002) which might lead to false results in IL when using anti-peptide antibodies generated to KLH-conjugated peptide.
