CharacterizationTo ensure acceptable performance, each batch of product is tested in a sandwich ELISA to conform tocharacteristics of a standard reference reagent.
Application InfoELISA Capture: BVD4-1D11 monoclonal antibody is useful as a capture antibody in a sandwich ELISA for quantifying mouse IL-4 protein levels. 1-4 Purified BVD4-1D11 antibody should be paired with biotinylated BVD6-24G2 antibody (OASB01247) as the detection antibody, with purified recombinant mouse IL-4 as the standard. Immunofluorescence/Flow Cytometry: BVD4-1D11 antibody is useful for intracytoplasmic staining and flow cytometric analysis to identify and enumerate IL-4-positive cells within mixed cell populations. Recombinant mouse IL-4, unlabeled Rat IgG2b (OASB00115) should be used as a specificity control. Western Blotting: The purified BVD4-1D11 antibody is also useful for Western blotting applications. For Western blotting, a concentration of 1-5ug/mL (in conjunction with AP-labeled Goat Anti-Rat-Ig, OASB01897) has been found to enable detection of <= 100 ng/lane of recombinant mouse IL-4 under reducing conditions. Neutralization: The LE/AF form of BVD4-1D11 can be used for neutralizing mouse IL-4 bioactivity. A suitable LE/AF Rat IgG2b (OASB00124) should be used as an isotype control. Since applications vary, each investigator should determine the optimal concentration appropriate for individual applications.
