The effects of
polyclonal antiserum against pig APM protein on growth performances and feed intake are showed in Table 1.
For the primary antibody, the
polyclonal antiserum was diluted 1:1000 with 0.5% nonfat milk in T-TBS (10 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl, and 0.05% Tween 20).
Previous studies have demonstrated that SARS-CoV N protein can cross-react with
polyclonal antiserum induced by group 1 animal CoVs (8).
This latter type of interference reportedly could be avoided by either coating the gold particles with the F[(ab').sub.2] fragments instead of the complete IgG (26) or by use of a
polyclonal antiserum against RF (27).
A
polyclonal antiserum raised against the tail of cloned myosin I[Beta] also detected, on immunoblots, a 120-kD protein of similar abundance (T.
In parallel, immunohistochemical (IHC) testing was carried out on the cell cultures by using the avidin-biotin complex technique, with a
polyclonal antiserum raised in mice against WNV antigens, for which cross-reactivity with Usutu virus had been demonstrated previously (1).
The
polyclonal antiserum bound the maximal amount of TRAP when diluted up to 1:1000 (Fig.
Figure 1 shows a transverse section of anemone tentacle stained with
polyclonal antiserum raised to NF 200.
An IgG fraction of a goat
polyclonal antiserum (International Enzymes, Inc.) and an affinity-purified IgG (SCI-PAC) against human CRP were used.
Clearly limulin and Limulus CRP are closely related: both proteins bind to PE-affinity resins; both have the same native ([similar to]300 kDa--by size exclusion chromatography on Sephacryl S-300 HR resin) and subunit [[similar to]24-28 kDa--by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE)] molecular masses; and both have the same amino terminal peptide sequence (LEEGEGITSKV), and a
polyclonal antiserum produced against purified Limulus CRP cross-reacts with limulin.
A
polyclonal antiserum was prepared as follows: rabbits were immunized by intracutaneous injection of 100 [micro]g of total GST-[alpha] in complete Freund's adjuvant and boosted twice by subcutaneous injection of 50 [micro]g of GST-[alpha] in incomplete Freund's adjuvant.
