Product Description |
Protein
A affinity chromatography is widely used for antibody purification. The leakage
of Protein A ligands has become a significant problem in the pharmaceutical
industry, even when Protein A ligands are covalently bound to chromatography
support. It also probably causes false results in immunological assays if an antibody
is contaminated with Protein A. Therefore, the assessment
of residual Protein A is a critical quality control step in the production
process of antibodies. Leached
Protein A tends to interact with residual immunoglobulins in the sample through
its Fc binding domain. This interaction hinders the formation of complexes
between the anti-Protein A antibodies and Protein A, thereby interfering with
the accurate quantification of Protein A in immunoassays and leading to a
significant underestimation of Protein A impurities. It is noteworthy that the
extent of this interference varies considerably among different antibodies,
with a particularly common occurrence in many human IgGs. GenScript Protein A ELISA Kit, 2G (Cat. No. L01043) is designed to
accurately quantify most forms of Protein A available on the market, including native
Protein A, recombinant Protein A variants and Alkali-tolerant recombinant
protein A variants. This kit provides a unique ‘Denaturing Solution’ that
effectively disrupts the binding between Protein A and IgG, thereby minimizing
its interference with quantification. In comparison to traditional boiling
methods for Protein A dissociation, this kit offers a more accurate, simple-to-use,
precise and highly sensitive method for quantifying Protein A, with a detection
limit as low as 62.5 pg/mL, in mouse, rat, rabbit, or human antibody samples. This
kit can be used to measure trace amounts of Protein A in therapeutic antibody
products in the pharmaceutical industry. Antibody suppliers can use the kit to
evaluate Protein A containment level of the products. It also makes it easier
for the manufacturers of Protein A affinity chromatography media in the process
of monitoring the leaching characteristics of the media under specific
conditions. |
