Reconstitution	For consistent and reproducible results, reconstitute with 183µl of distilled water and 217µl PBS (or 50% glycerol in PBS) for the equivalent of undiluted antibody, immediately before use.
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.
