Anti-Herpes Simplex Virus 2 (HSV 2) Antibody

Raised in sheep and purified as an Ig fraction, this unconjugated polyclonal reagent is supplied by Antibodies.com as a 500 µL vial targeting Herpes Simplex Virus 2. The antibody supports ELISA, immunofluorescence assay (IFA), and Western blot workflows commonly used in virology and infectious disease laboratories, including HSV-2 antigen screening in infected cell lysates and glycoprotein response characterization. Because the reagent recognizes multiple epitopes across viral antigens, it offers broader coverage than monoclonal alternatives when working with variable clinical isolates or recombinant antigen panels. The unconjugated format leaves conjugation choices open, allowing the antibody to be paired with HRP, fluorophores, gold particles, or biotin depending on the downstream method. Storage follows standard purified Ig handling: keep refrigerated, aliquot on receipt to limit freeze-thaw cycles, and protect from light to preserve binding activity. Intended for in vitro research use only, the polyclonal reagent integrates into existing HSV-2 detection protocols run on microplate formats for ELISA and on membrane-based systems for Western blot confirmation of viral protein expression.
