Anti-Streptococcus pneumoniae Antibody

From the Antibodies.com catalogue of primary antibodies, this reagent is a mouse-derived monoclonal reagent that targets the common C-polysaccharide of Streptococcus pneumoniae, specifically the phosphorylcholine epitope, making it suitable for diagnostic and research workflows centred on this pathogen. Supplied at 1 mg per vial as a Protein A-purified preparation in 10 mM phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.2) containing 0.1% sodium azide, the antibody is unconjugated and of the IgG3 isotype, with a stated shelf life of approximately four years when stored appropriately. The host species is mouse and the clonality is monoclonal, classified as an in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) reagent. Validated applications include ELISA and IFA (immunofluorescence assay), supporting its use in immunoassays designed to detect S. pneumoniae antigens in clinical and laboratory samples. For short-term use the vial can be kept at 4 °C, while long-term storage at −20 °C with aliquoting is recommended to limit freeze–thaw damage. This format makes the product a convenient drop-in option for laboratories standardising S. pneumoniae detection across ELISA plate-based and slide-based immunofluorescence protocols.
