Background
Neuropeptide Y is a peptide belonging to the PP-family and occurs in neurons and adrenal medullary cells. Antisera raised against NPY often cross-react with PP and PYY. This antiserum was raised using a synthetic peptide from the prepro-NPY sequence which has no homologies to PP and NPY.
Absorption with 10-100 ug immunogen per ml diluted antiserum abolishes the staining.
Positive control: Stefanini-fixed sections of rat small intestine.

Most of our purified mouse antibodies contain 0.5% BSA as stabilizer. If BSA was added to the antibody solution, it is stated in the datasheet.
The supernatant format contains FCS proteins from cell culture medium supplemented with FCS.
The serum antibodies contain other proteins present in serum.

The optimal antibody dilution for your specific protocol and application needs to be titrated in your lab with your equipment and sample. The optimal dilution may vary between protocols and samples. A good dilution for starting the titration is the dilution mentioned in the datasheet. If the sample needs a specific treatment (eg. Antigen retrieval for IHC on FFPE sections) this should also be mentioned on the antibody datasheet.
PROGEN antibodies are shipped at ambient temperature. The antibodies are stable at ambient temperature for the shipment period. Please store the antibodies as indicated in the datasheet upon arrival.
