Frequently Asked Questions
How are acetone powders used for antibody pre-adsorption?
Acetone powders are tissue proteins dried with acetone, which removes lipids and water while preserving the antigens. Incubating an antiserum with acetone powder from the host species or an unrelated tissue lets cross-reactive antibodies bind to the powder and be removed, lowering background in immunohistochemistry, western blotting and other immunoassays.
Which tissues do you make acetone powders from?
What is the difference between item 41110 and 41170 rabbit brain acetone powders?
Each of these rabbit brain acetone powders begins with a frozen rabbit brain as the raw material prior to acetone drying and powder production. Code 41170 includes barium sulfate during processing while code 41110 does not. Barium sulfate acts to bind clotting factors which may speed coagulation, thus code 41170 has increased sensitivity to clotting deficiencies.
Can I use your rabbit brain products to make thromboplastin or APTT reagents?
Yes. Rabbit brain cephalin (41052) is the phospholipid used as the platelet substitute in partial thromboplastin (APTT) reagents, and rabbit brain acetone powder (41110, 41170) and recombinant rabbit tissue factor (41055) are the usual starting materials for thromboplastin (prothrombin time) reagents.
Are tissues collected from a USDA-inspected abattoir?
Yes, our rabbit tissues are collected from our Rogers, AR rabbit processing facility, where a USDA inspector remains on site at all times during processing. Each rabbit processed is inspected and any by-products collected are discarded should any animal be found to be unfit for human consumption or otherwise unsuitable for use.
