Adiponectin (Acrp30, Adipocyte Complement-related Protein of 30kD, AdipoQ, apM1, Gelatin Binding Protein 28, GPB28)

Adiponectin (also called ACRP30 and GBP28) is a protein exclusively secreted from adipose tissue. Full-length adiponectin was expressed in HEK293 cells stably transfected with pcdm-F vector encoding FLAG epitope-tagged mouse adiponectin. Recombinant adiponectin was purified using anti-FLAG M2 affinity gel (Sigma-Aldrich) and was eluted with FLAG peptide. FLAG peptides were removed by an extensive wash with an excessive volume of saline. Highly sensitive matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass-spectrometric analysis confirmed that FLAG peptide was not detectable in the protein solution.\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nIndirect ELISA: >1:100,000 using 25ng of antigen coated per well.\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nStorage and Stability:\nLyophilized powder may be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Reconstitute to nominal volume by adding sterile 40-50% glycerol and store at -20 degrees C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
