Anti-CHIKV E2 Antibody, clone 1.3A2

Sucrose gradient-purified, gamma-irradiated CHIKVMAU E2 protein (Mauritius strain 06113879) with Quil-A saponin as adjuvant followed by a second application and later a boost with binary-ethyleneimine inactivated CHIKVASIAN.

~50 kDa observed. Uncharacterized bands may be observed in some lysate(s).

Western Blotting Analysis: A 1:500 dilution from a representative lot detected E2 of Chikungunya virus in C6/36 mosquito cell lysates either mock-infected (negative) or CHIKV-infected (positive). (Courtesy of Jody Peters, Ph.D., University of Queensland, Australia).

Neutralizing Analysis: A representative lot efficiently neutralized different CHIKV isolates in Neutralizing applications (Goh, L.Y., et. al. (2013). Clin Immunol. 149(3):487-97).

Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected CHIKV E2 in Western Blotting applications (Goh, L.Y., et. al. (2013). Clin Immunol. 149(3):487-97).

ELISA Analysis: A representative lot detected CHIKV E2 in ELISA applications (Goh, L.Y., et. al. (2013). Clin Immunol. 149(3):487-97).

Clone 1.3A2 specifically detects E2 glycoprotein in Chikungunya virus. May recognize multiple epitopes on E2 protein.
