Amaranthus caudatus (ACL/ACA) (HRP)

Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is a 40kD protein that catalyzes the oxidation of substrates by hydrogen peroxide, resulting in a colored or fluorescent product or release of light as a byproduct of the reaction. It is most commonly used for blotting, immunoassays and immunohistochemistry methods. Amaranthus caudatus Lectin (ACL/ACA) is conjugated to HRP at an appropriate ratio to provide optimal staining characteristics.||Source:|Tassle flower||Blood Specificity:|O > B > A (-SA) T antigen||Sugar Specificity:|Galbeta; 3GalNAc||Inhibitory Carbohydrate:|Disialyzed Fetuin||Divalent Ions:|None Required||Storage and Stability:|May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 6 months after receipt at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Sodium azide is a potent inhibitor of peroxidase and should not be added to HRP conjugates.
