The E06-TopFluor? is primarily use for direct ELISA, immune-fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry.
The E06 antibody is a murine monoclonal IgM natural antibody that binds to oxidized phospholipid and reacts with oxidized LDL, oxidized HDL and protein covalently modified by oxidized phospholipid. This antibody has been used to probe atherosclerotic plaque in mice, zebrafish, rabbits, monkeys and humans. It also binds to apoptotic cells, but not viable cells, and can be used in a variety of applications, including ELISA, immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis, as well as for in vivo imaging with MRI techniques.Avanti now provides high purity E06 from animal-free culture of hybridoma cells. Each batch is verified for activity and provided with detailed protocols for the above applications.The E06 antibody was developed by Dr. Joseph Witztum at the University of California, San Diego using apolipoprotein E knock-out mice fed a high-fat diet for seven months.
