    Comparison of 10 ug/well of activated linear (PEG5K) and branched (PEG40K) PEG using 5 ug/ml of ab51257 in Direct ELISA assay.

    Accuracy: By detecting the methoxy group of the PEG molecule itself, ab51257 is useful in measuring the pharmacokinetics of PEG-modified molecules in vivo. Data indicate that ab51257 detects various length Y-chain PEG molecules as well as single chain PEG molecules with equal affinity. ab51257 does not cross react with non-specific targets in blood or serum.

Question

Is there a pre-established method of antigen retrieval that is known to work well for this antibody.

Asked on Mar 13 2015

Answer

In our validation of ab51257 in IHC-P, antigen retrieval was not necessary. ab51257 was validated internally with mice injected intraperitoneally using 100 ug of BSA-PEG as an antigen. Heart, kidney, liver and spleen tissue were stained 4 hours post-injection using Anti-PEG RabMAb without antigen retrieval.



However, some of the papers that have used the antibody in IHC-P did use an antigen retrieval step (one example used a head mediated retrieval on a DAKO autostainer). A list of publications that used the antibody in IHC are listed below, which may be of further assistance:

Question

Since this is an antibody against the methoxy group of PEG, is there a difference in its reactivity against free mPEG vs PEG coupled to a protein? Thanks!

Asked on Jun 27 2013

Answer


Both free form of PEG (unconjugated version) and conjugated PEG were tested by sandwich ELISA using this anti-PEG antibody (ab51257); however, our results showed that this antibody does not detect unconjugated PEG.

If you need an antibody which detects the free form of PEG, I would recommend using an anti-PEG Backbone antibody, ab133471. This antibody recognizes PEG backbone and that PEG is not required to be bound to other molecules.

Asked on Feb 06 2013

Answer

We used PEG with MW of 5K to generate ab51257. The smallest PEG molecule which our antibody can detect is PEG750. Based on customer feedback, the biggest PEG molecule detected is PEG 40K. Additionally, this product has been shown to detect both linear and branched PEG.

Can you please let me know if your Epitomics anti-PEG antibodies can be used for immunohistochemistry with formalin-fixed tissues?

Asked on Feb 05 2013

Answer

Thank you for contacting us and your interest in our products.

The Anti-Polyethylene glycol antibody [PEG-B-47] (catalogue number ab51257, 2061-1) has been used in IHC and is expected to be able to detect PEG if present in the tissue with IHC of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded sections.

This was performed at Epitomics with mice injected intraperitoneally using 100 ug of BSA-PEG as an antigen. Heart, kidney, liver and spleen tissue were stained 4 hours post-injection using Anti-PEG RabMAb (Cat #2061-1). Attached please find images of the results obtained.

I hope this information has been helpful. If I can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to let me know.
