a chemical conjugate of pre-immune rat IgG antibody
and the ribosome-inactivating protein, saporin

This product serves as a control for targeted toxins that use a rat monoclonal: Mac-1-SAP, Anti-DAT-SAP and Anti-CD25-SAP mouse. This control molecule is the same molecular weight, consists of similar, comparable materials (saporin and a rat IgG) and is synthesized with the same protocols as the targeted toxins. The difference is the cell-specific targeting agents are replaced with "blanks," antibodies or peptides that have no specificity, and no ability to target cells.

Effective Tool

• The perfect control molecule for targeted immunotoxins
• There's no mixing of reagents; use it "as is" out of the vial
• No complicated calculations; use the same amount as the targeted toxin
• Ready to use: it comes sterile-filtered in phosphate-buffered saline
• It has the activity of non-targeted saporin, that is, almost none
