Alpha-MSH (Alpha-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone)

Catalog #	G-043-01
Standard Size	400 µg
Sequence	Ac - Ser - Tyr - Ser - Met - Glu - His - Phe - Arg - Trp - Gly - Lys - Pro - Val - NH2
Species	Human, Rat, Mouse
Host	Rabbit
Reconstitution	For consistent and reproducible results, reconstitute with 70µl of distilled water and 330µl PBS (or 50% glycerol in PBS) for the equivalent of undiluted antibody, immediately before use. Do not refreeze any unused portions.
Storage Condition	For optimal results, use the antibody as soon as possible after reconstitution. Store in lyophilized form unless needed and reconstitute immediately before use. Once reconstituted, the antibody should be stable for a few days at -4°C. For storage up to a few months, prepare small aliquots after reconstitution and freeze at -20°C or -80°C. Repeated freeze thaw cycles should be strictly avoided.
Contents	Each vial contains 400µg of rabbit anti- α -MSH IgG in 70µl PBS (137 mM NaCI, 2.7 mM KCI, 4.3 mM Na2HPO4, 1.4 mM KH2PO4) containing 0.03% Thimerosal in lyophilized form.

This was purified from whole serum by Protein A affinity column. The HPLC purified standard peptide, α -MSH can be detected with this IgG (1:3200, 0.312µg/ml) in ELISA. We recommend each laboratory to determine an optimum titer for use in its particular assay system.
