This purified antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and western blotting. Reactivity is also expected in neutralizations, radioimmunoassay and immunohistochemistry. The endotoxin content is estimated to be <10 pg/ul by the LAL method. By western blot a band approximately 17.9 kDa in size corresponding to mouse IL17-F protein is expected in the appropriate cell lysate or extract. IL-17F forms a disulfide linked homodimer. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user.
