The antibody may be used in ELISA and IAC. Dilution of 1/15,000 from the delivered solution.(The titer is defined as the dilution that gives 50 % of the absorbance from the maximum absorbance when tested with ELISA). Suggested concentration to use in ELISA : 1/15,000 from the delivered solution. HRP-conjugated derivative as a tracer.

Precautions should be taken upon storage for longer periods. Problems of long term stability may occur with highly diluted solutions. No other preservative agent has been added to the present formulation. For long storage purposes in solution the addition of sodium azide at 0.02 % is advised with the appropriate precautions of use.
