Immunogen: KLH-conjugated synthetic peptide conserved in Raphanus sativus TIP1;1 and TIP1;2 (protein accesion number available in Suga et al. 2001). Peptide is also conserved in Arabidopsis thaliana TIP1-1 P25818, At2g36830, TIP1-2 Q41963, At3g26520
Host: Rabbit
Clonality: Polyclonal
Purity: Antigen 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; 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.

Protein or membrane sample should be treated at 70°C for 10 min before loading on the gel.Diluted antibody solution can be used 2 to 3 times within one month if it contains 0.1 % sodium azide as preservative and is stored at -20ºC to -80ºC.Triton X-100 should not be included in the protein extraction buffer, when cell organelles or membrane proteins must be separated from soluble proteins. Because, Triton X breaks membrane structure and solubilizes most membranes proteins. Furthermore, it should be noted that Triton X at high concentrations binds SDS and mask the detergent effect of SDS for SDS-PAGE. Also, micelles of Triton X behave as a large complex with molecular mass of 90 kDa at high concentrations in SDS-PAGE.
