Antigen Long Description: The original antibody was isolated from a chicken derived single chain phage display library by screening against chicken Newcastle disease virus.
Buffer Composition: PBS only.
Chimeric Use Statement: This full-length chimeric mouse antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Chicken scFv format for improved compatibility with existing reagents assays and techniques.
Specificity Statement: This antibody recognizes and binds chicken Newcastle disease virus (NDV). NDV is an avian disease causing a deadly infection in many domestic and wild bird species; it is transmissible to humans. In humans, NDV causes mild flu-like symptoms or conjunctivitis and/or laryngitis.
Application Notes (Clone): The binding characterization of this antibody to chicken Newcastle disease virus was done using ELISA and western blot. This antibody does not cross react with bursal disease virus and avian influenza, Marek’s virus and adenoviruses (CN101070541).
