HTLV-1 Core, p24, Recombinant (Human T Cell Leukemia Virus)

The protein contains the full-length HTLV-I major core protein p24.\n\nSpecificity:\nImmunoreactive with all sera of HTLV-I infected individuals.\n\nApplications:\nAntigen in ELISA and Western Blot, excellent antigen for early detection of HIV seroconvertors with minimal specificity problems.\n\nStorage and Stability:\nMay be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage, store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 6 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.
