AnaSpec's mouse/rat Mog(35-55) peptide induced polyclonal anti-Mog(35-55) antibody production in rabbits with high specificity, high affinity, and high titer (>3125K) indicating the high purity of AnaSpec's Mog peptide as well as suitability for peptide-coated Elisa and Western blot assay.
Using AnaSpec's mouse/rat Mog(35-55) peptide as a coating peptide, AnaSpec produced the industry's first anti-Mog (35-55) Elisa kit for EAE study.
The detection limit was measured to be as low as 50pg of anti-Mog (35-55) autoantibody in serum or cerebrospinal fluid.
After testing different lots of AnaSpec Mog peptides for Elisa coating, AnaSpec reported that the quality variation from lot to lot was minimal.
