Toxicity: Standard Handling (A)

Reconstitute the lyophilized antibody with 100 µl sterile distilled H₂O. Carefully reconstitute the entire contents of the vial; during shipment and handling portions of the lyophilized pellet may have become dislodged and may not be in the bottom of the vial. Following reconstitution, aliquot and freeze (-20°C). Stock solutions are stable for up to 6 months at -20°C. Dilute with sterile PBS or Tris buffer at dilutions no higher than 1:10. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles of solutions.

Positive Control
Rat amygdala or spinal cord

Antibody specificity was examined in the rat amygdala and spinal cord. Staining is completely eliminated by pre-treatment of antibody with 10^-5M rat α-CGRP and partially eliminated by preabsorption with rat β-CGRP. Preabsorption with calcitonin resulted in no loss of immunostaining. For staining paraffin sections, heat sections to 80°C in 40 mM sodium citrate buffer, pH 8.5. Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.
