Description
Data Sheet
| Description | HBsAg is a serological marker produced on the surface of the hepatitis B virus and is one of the first disease state markers to be detected in the serum of patients infected with the hepatitis B virus. Recombinant Anti HbsAg produced in E.Coli is a non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing a hexahistidine tag and having a molecular weight of 43 kDa.HBsAg is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Expression host | Escherichia Coli. |
| Formulation | HBsAg is supplied in 1xPBS pH7.4 & 0.09% azide. |
| Protein Background | HBsAg is the surface antigenof the Hepatitis-B-Virus (HBV). The capsidof a virus has different surface proteins from the rest of the virus. The antigen is a protein that binds specifically on one of these surface proteins. It is commonly referred to as the Australian Antigen. |
| Purity | Greater than 95.0% as determined byAnalysis by RP-HPLC.Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
| Reagent Appearance | Sterile Filtered clear solution. |
| Stability | Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. Please avoid freeze thaw cycles. |
| Type | Antibody Recombinant. |
