product information
|
| background |
|
Allophycocyanin is a protein of the light-harvesting phycobiliprotein family of red algae and cyanobacteria. It is an accessory pigment to chlorophyll A located in the core of the phycobilisome, and its strong spectral overlap with chlorophyll facilitates energy transfer for photosynthesis. |
| immunogen |
|
native allophycocyanin alpha and beta purified from Porphyridium cruentum phycobilisomes |
| antibody format |
|
rabbit |
polyclonal |
|
serum |
lyophilized |
|
| quantity |
|
200 µl |
for reconstitution add 200 µl of sterile water. |
|
| storage |
|
store lyophilized/reconstituted at -20°C; once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Please, remember to spin tubes briefly prior to opening them to avoid any losses that might occur from lyophilized material adhering to the cap or sides of the tubes. |
