Product Information
Product name: Normal Rabbit Serum
Host: Rabbit
Applications: BL, ELISA, ICC, IF, IHC
Application notes:
Optimal working dilutions should be determined experimentally by the investigator. Suggested starting dilutions are as follows: IHC-p (1:10-20), IF/ICC (1:10-20) and ELISA (1:100).
Preparation method:
Normal rabbit serum is processed from blood collected from non-immunized normal adult rabbits. Hemolysis is minimized by employing proprietary techniques during the blood collection and serum extraction processes.
Purification: 
Lipid extracted and dialyzed against 10 mM sodium phosphate, 0.15 M sodium chloride, pH 7.2
Purity: Whole serum
 
Fig(Please see above). Normal rabbit serum is processed from blood collected from non-immunized normal adult rabbits. Normal serum diluted to 5%-20% (v/v) in PBS is strongly recommended as a blocking reagent to reduce background from non-specific binding, or control for most immunoassay applications. 2ml, 10ml package sizes are available, whicle bulk size available upon request.

Background
Normal rabbit serums, which are from non-immuned rabbit hosts, are lipid extracted to improve clarity, dialyzed against phosphate buffered saline (PBS) containing sodium azide. Normal serum diluted to 5%-20% (v/v) in PBS is strongly recommended as a blocking reagent to reduce background from non-specific binding, or control for most immunoassay applications. Best results are obtained with diluted normal serum from the same host as the labeled antibody, as a separate incubation step before addition of the primary antibody.
