Oligoclonal Antibodies – Exceptional Consistency Helps Save Time and Money
Life Technologies' oligoclonal antibodies are a pool of monoclonal rabbit IgG antibodies targeted against a specific antigen. Oligoclonal antibodies are produced by transfection of mammalian cells with heavy and light chain antibody cDNAs. This provides you with the highest consistency between lots, eliminating the need to revalidate your assays for each lot.

Oligoclonal Antibody Advantages Include:

• Superior lot-to-lot consistency
• Extremely high specificity and sensitivity
• Validation by Life Technologies

Specific for IL-23
Interleukin -23 (IL-23) is a member of the IL-12 cytokine family which is produced by dendritic cells and other antigen presenting cells located in the peripheral tissues. This cytokine is a heterodimer composed of the IL-12p40 subunit and p19 subunit.IL-23 is required for the induction, expansion, maintenance and downstream effector functions of Th17 cells. Th17 cells play a vital role in up-regulating neutrophil chemokines and various pro-inflammatory cytokines. IL-23 interacts with receptors IL-12Rbeta1 and IL-23R and activates the Jak-Stat signaling cascade. It also plays an important role in stimulating memory T-cells.

Obtain More Reliable Data
The proprietary recombinant technology employed in the production of Life Technologies' oligoclonal antibodies means you are assured of the greatest degree of reliability. Staining of nonspecific proteins is virtually eliminated while very high sensitivity is achieved.

Detect Low Levels of Target Protein
Life Technologies' oligoclonal antibodies demonstrate much higher sensitivity than ordinary antibodies. Proteins expressed in low levels can be detected with high specificity allowing you to use less of your precious samples than with ordinary antibodies.

Recombinant Rabbit IgG – Use Like Any Other IgG Antibody
As with traditional IgG antibodies, gel electrophoresis of rabbit oligoclonal antibodies produces a 150 kDa band under non-reducing conditions and 50 kDa and 25 kDa bands under reducing conditions.
