Biofunctional Antibodies: The Ultra-LEAF™ Advantage

Related Products

Related Pages

Biofunctional antibodies can either mimic or interrupt the natural biologic effects associated with ligand-receptor interactions, or have a physiological effect on a target cell or molecule. They may be used in several functional assays, including depletion, activation, neutralization, or blocking experiments. BioLegend offers antibodies in multiple formats for in vivo and in vitro assays. We are also committed to provide the highest quality and standards.

While ELISAs and flow cytometry are useful tools for scientific analysis, in vivo and in vitro functional assays can provide a unique set of answers. For these types of experiments, BioLegend has been providing 0.2 micron sterile-filtered, Low Endotoxin, Azide-Free (LEAF™) and Ultra-Low Endotoxin, Azide-Free (Ultra-LEAF™) antibody formulations, which eliminate unwanted effects from endotoxin and sodium azide. The major difference between these two formulations is the guaranteed endotoxin content. Please contact our technical service group if you have any questions.

Blockade of PD-L1 increases T cell activation

 

 

 

PD-1 and CD25 expression on CD4+ T cell splenocytes from melanoma bearing C57BL/6 mice 14 days after serial injection (200 µg by I.V. injection on days 0, 3, 6) of GoInVivo™ anti-PD-L1 antibody clone 10F.9G2 (Cat. No. 124328) or Isotype control (Cat. No. 400666)

 

Ultra-LEAF™ Purified anti–VEGF–121 Antibody 

Recombinant human VEGF-121 (cat. no. 583202) stimulates proliferation of HUVEC in a dose-dependent manner (dark purple squares). Proliferation induced by recombinant human VEGF-121 (15 ng/mL) is neutralized (purple circles) by increasing concentrations of Ultra-LEAF™ anti-human VEGF-121 monoclonal antibody (Clone A15136B). The ND50 is typically 25 – 100 ng/mL.

Ultra–LEAF™ Purified anti–CCL15 Antibody

Recombinant human CCL15 chemoattracts Baf3-hCCR1 transfectants in a dose dependent manner (purple circles). Ultra-LEAF™ anti-human CCL15 antibody (clone A15015A, purple squares) neutralizes the chemoattraction of Baf3-hCCR1 transfectants induced by recombinant human CCL15 (6 ng/ml). The ND50 is typically 0.05 – 0.25 µg/ml.
