Target

  • Relevance

    Clostridium botulinum neurotoxins are zinc-dependent proteases that block the release of acetylcholine from peripheral cholinergic nerve endings by targeting specific membrane proteins including synaptosomal-associated proteins (SNAP), vesicle-associated membrane proteins (VAMP), and syntaxins. Neurotoxin A is characteristically associated with human botulism and known to target and hydrolyse the 197-Gln-|-Arg-198 bond of SNAP-25.

Question

What type of ELISA was done to validate these antibodies? How much protein was used and can we provide protocol details?

Asked on Sep 11 2013

Answer

For catalog # ab20641 and ab20786 a direct ELISA was performed. The limit of detection (LOD) with direct ELISA is greater than 1:10,000 on both products with no amplification using OPD (o-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride) development and HRP conjugated 2nd antibody.
This is the most detail that we have available, and we recommend optimization of the reagents/antibodies in your specific application.

Answer

Thank you for your phone call today, and I apologize for any miscommunication with my colleague yesterday. Your credit note ID for ab20641 is: ***. Your credit note ID for ab7202 is: ***. I am sorry that these antibodies did not perform as stated on the datasheet. If payment has already been made on the original orders and you wish to receive a refund, please ask your purchasing department to contact our accounting department so that we may gather the correct information needed for the refund. To avoid confusion, please ensure your accounts department is aware of how the credit note is being used. Our accounting department can be contacted by email at us.credits@abcam.com or by telephone using the information at the Contact Us link in the top right corner of our website. Please refer to the credit note ID in any correspondence with our accounting department. I hope this experience will not prevent you from purchasing other products from us in the future. Our Scientific Support team is always at your service, should you require further expert advice.

Answered on Oct 27 2011

Question

We previously ordered ab20641-250, and have product information describing this antibody as anti-"toxin." However, your website now calls this same product anti-"toxoid," has the product changed recently, or only the information describing the product? We are planning to repeat an experiment, and would like to be certain that we are using the same reagent. Any information you have regarding this situation would be much appreciated.

Asked on Oct 31 2006

Answer

Thank you for your enquiry. I can confirm that the immunogen for this antibody (ab20641) has not changed. A toxoid is an attenuated/inactivated toxin. The Clostridium botulinum Type A Neurotoxin is inactivated using formaldehyde before it is used as an immunogen to create this antibody. Fairly recently, a decision was taken to change toxin to toxoid on the datasheet as this was considered to be a more accurate description. I hope this information is helpful. Please do not hesitate to contact us again should you have any further questions.
