Morphine-BSA Antigen

From Antibodies.com's Antigens catalog, this Morphine-BSA Antigen is supplied as a ready-to-use liquid Antigen-BSA conjugate, formulated in deionized water and intended for use in lateral flow immunoassay development. The product is presented at a 1 mg pack size and is shipped at 4 °C for short-term storage, with longer-term conditions described on the supplier datasheet. Morphine is covalently conjugated to bovine serum albumin (BSA), giving the small-molecule hapten a carrier protein so it can be coated or conjugated onto solid phases in competitive immunoassays for the detection of morphine and structurally related opioids. Because the conjugate is supplied in a liquid format, no reconstitution is required prior to dilution and coating, which simplifies assay setup for researchers building lateral flow devices or screening matched antibody pairs. The antigen is for research use only and is not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic applications, so it is well suited to assay R&D, antibody pairing studies, and small-molecule immunogen work rather than clinical testing. The Morphine-BSA Antigen is dispatched from St. Louis, MO, with an approximate lead time of 10–14 business days from Antibodies.com, and the conjugate can be paired with appropriate anti-morphine antibodies to build complete competitive-inhibition test systems.
