Beta amyloid is an extracellular filamentous protein deposit found in the brain. It is the major protein component of amyloid cores, neuritic plaques and is also found as a deposit in neurofibrillary tangles. Alzheimers diseased brain tissue is characterised by an abundance of neurofibrillary tangles, neuropil threads and abnormal neuritis in senile plaques. Neurofibrillary tangles represent dense accumulations of ultrastructurally distinct paired helical filaments whose major component is a microtubule-associated tau protein. Applications: Suitable for use in FLISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Store product at 4C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20C. Aliquots are stable at -20C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: FITC conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
