Species Reactivity | Species independent |
Basic Information | |
Specificity | This antibody binds tetrodotoxin (TTX), which is a small molecular weight neurotoxin that occludes voltage-gated sodium channels in nerve and muscle tissue, resulting in respiratory paralysis and death. |
Alternative Name | TTX; C11H17N3O8; 4368-28-9; CHEMBL507974; Tetrodoxin; Tarichatoxin; Maculotoxin; Spheroidine; Tetrodontoxin; Fugu poison |
UniProt | |
Immunogen | The original antibody was generated by immunizing mice with chemically made tetrodotoxin complete antigen. Later on a phage display library was constructed from the amplified genes encoding monoclonal antibodies and the clone was isolated after six rounds of biopanning. |
Application Notes | This high affinity antibody can be used for the detection of tetrodotoxin and TTX-BSA conjugate in an ELISA. |
