Effect Diluents, Animal-free efficiently minimize Product Characteristics Effect Diluents, Animal-free are effective buffers free of any animal components. They can be used for the dilution of serum, plasma, blood, stool or urine samples, as well as the dilution of primary and secondary antibodies. Effect Diluents, Animal-free efficiently minimize matrix effects, cross-reactions and unspecific binding in immunoassays like ELISA, Western blotting, Immunohistochemistry, protein arrays and immuno-PCR.The Effect Diluents, Animal-free are used alternatively to the standard sample or antibody dilution buffers: In ELISA for the dilution of specimen and detection antibodies. In Western Blotting for the dilution of primary and secondary antibodies. In Protein arrays for the dilution of specimen and detection antibodies. In immuno-PCR as a washing buffer.Three versions of the diluent are offered: Low, Medium and High for optimal discrimination between specific and unspecific reaction and for minimizing strong interference effects e.g., by RF (rheumatoid factors), HAMAs (human-a-mouse Abs) or by endogenous components that bind and mask the analyte.Composition & Properties The Effect Diluents, Animal free contain no animal components and are free of phosphates.Working Procedure 1.Mix thoroughly prior to use. 2.Dilution recommendations a.Dilute antibodies according to the instruction of the antibody b.Dilution of the specimen is recommended at 1:2 or higherTips & TricksEffect Diluents must not be considered as blocking buffers. Recommended blocking buffers are: Synthetic Blocking Buffer, ELISA (cat. no. S494401), Synthetic Blocking Buffer, Blotting (cat. no. S494457) and WellChampion (cat. no. W494467) for plate blocking and stabilization (preparation of pre-coated plates). Complex sample matrices, such as serum and plasma, may contain interfering factors that affect the ability of the assay to accurately quantify the target analyte. Strong interferences are often caused by RFs and HAMAs. This matrix effect can cause high background in the negative control or false negatives in the sample measurement. To reduce this effect the samples can be diluted in the Effect Diluents, Animalfree.Handling & Storage Store solution 2-8°C or -15 to -30°C (tolerates freezing and thawing cycles)...

It is highly expressed in spleen, lymph node, and resting B cells and to some extent in activated B cells, resting CD4+ Purity>95% SDS-PAGE.FunctionB Cell Activating Factor Receptor (BAFF-R), also named tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 13C, is a member of the TNFR superfamily. It is highly expressed in spleen, lymph node, and resting B cells and to some extent in activated B cells, resting CD4+ cells and peripheral blood leukocytes. BAFF receptor is a type III transmembrane protein containing a single extracellular phenylalanine-rich domain and binds with high specificity to BAFF (TNFSF13B). It enhances B-cell survival in vitro and is a regulator of the peripheral B-cell population. BAFF receptor/BAFF signaling plays a critical role in B cell survival and maturation...

It cleaves heme to biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and iron. The biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. Purity:>98%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining.Description：Heme oxygenase (HMOX) is the rate limiting enzyme in heme catabolism. It cleaves heme to biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and iron. The biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. The mechanism of HMOX is unique in that heme serves as the substrate of the enzyme and as the prosthetic group for the activation of iron-bound O2. HMOX activity is highest in spleen where senescent erythrocytes are sequestered and destroyed. Two isoforms, HMOX1 and HMOX2, are expressed in most tissues. HMOX1 is an inducible enzyme in response to heme, heavy metals, oxidative stress, cytokines, and many drugs. Whereas HMOX2 displays a constitutive expression. HMOX1 is expressed mainly in spleen, liver, and kidney, and HMOX2 is prominently expressed in the brain and testes. The increased expression of HMOX1 levels is related to a variety of pathological states, where it functions as a cytoprotective molecule through its by products. HMOX1 also plays important roles in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis...
