CloneID: 1E8
Antigen Long Description: The original antibody was generated by immunizing mice with STX-glucose oxidase immunogen.
Origin Pub PMID: 27879646
Buffer Composition: PBS with 0.02% Proclin 300.
Available Custom Conjugation Options: AP, HRP, Fluorescein, APC, PE, Biotin Type A, Biotin Type B, Streptavidin, FluoroProbes 647H, Atto488, APC/Cy7, PE/Cy7
Specificity Statement: The antibody is specific for STX. STX is a potent neurotoxin and the best-known paralytic shellfish toxin. Ingestion of saxitoxin by humans, usually by consumption of shellfish contaminated by toxic algal blooms, is responsible for the illness known as paralytic shellfish poisoning.
Application Notes (Clone): The binding affinity of the original format of the antibody to STX was measured by surface plasmon resonance (Kd= 2.5 nM) (Shriver-Lake et al., 2017; PMID: 27879646).
