| Tissue Specificity |
Using a conjugate L.Tryptophan-(BSA), antibody specificity was performed with an ELISA test by competition experiments with the following compounds: Compounds Cross-reactivity ratio * L.Tryptophan-G-(BSA) 1 5 Hydroxy-L.Tryptophan-G-(BSA) 1/100 5 Methoxy-L.Tryptophan-G-(BSA) 1/250 Tryptamine-G-(BSA) (non reduced bounds) 1/450 L.Tryptophan 1/3,000 Tryptamine-G-(BSA) 1/11,000 5 Methoxytryptamine-G-(BSA) 1/56,000 5 Hydroxytryptamine-G-(BSA) 1/220,000 *Tryptophan-G-(BSA) concentration / other conjugated indolealkylamine concentration at half displacement. G: Glutaraldehyde. |
