To detect Rat EGF by sandwich ELISA (using 100ul/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5 - 2.0 ug/ml of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with ProSci?s Biotinylated Anti-Rat EGF (38-211) as a detection antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant Rat EGF.

This antibody stained colchicine injected rat brain (mammillary nuclei) tissue.  The primary antibody was incubated at 1.0 ug/ml overnight at 4°C.  This was followed by a peroxidase conjugated secondary antibody and then a fluorescein Tyramide Signal Amplification (TSA) reagent.  Optimal concentrations and conditions may vary.

Application Note:
Neutralization:
To yield one-half maximal inhibition [ND50] of the biological activity of Rat EGF (0.1 ng/mL), a concentration of < 0.1 μg/mL of this antibody is required.

ELISA:
Indirect:
To detect Rat EGF by indirect ELISA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5 - 2.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant Rat EGF.

Sandwich
To detect Rat EGF by sandwich ELISA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5 - 2.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with our biotinylated Anti-Rat EGF as a detection antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant Rat EGF.

Western Blot:
To detect Rat EGF by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.5 - 1.0 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant Rat EGF is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.
Background:
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) has a profound effect on the differentiation of specific cells in vivo and is a potent mitogenic factor for a variety of cultured cells. The EGF precursor is believed to exist as a membrane-bound molecule which is proteolytically cleaved to generate the 53-amino acid peptide hormone that stimulates cells to divide. EGF exerts its actions by binding to the EGFR, a 170 kDa protein. Epidermal growth factor is also a key growth factor regulating cell survival. Through its binding to cell surface receptors, EGF activates an extensive network of signal transduction pathways that include activation of the PI3K/AKT, RAS/ERK and JAK/STAT pathways
