Herpes Simplex Virus 1 Antibody (HSV1/1934) Summary

• Description: 200ug/ml of antibody purified from rabbit anti-serum by Protein A. Prepared in 10 mM PBS with 0.05% BSA & 0.05% azide. Also available WITHOUT BSA at 1.0 mg/ml. (NBP3-08632)
  
  Antibody with azide - store at 2 to 8C. Antibody without azide - store at -20 to -80C.
• Additional Information: Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody
• Immunogen: Detergent-solubilized Herpes Simplex Virus 1 infected cells
• Localization: Cytoplasmic and/or Nuclear
• Specificity: The antibody reacts with HSV type 1 specific antigen. It is suitable for detection of HSV in human cellular material obtained from superficial lesions or biopsies and for the early identification of HSV in infected tissue cultures. The herpes simplex virus (HSV) (also known as cold sore, night fever or fever blister) is a virus that causes a contagious disease. There are two main types of Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV), 1 and 2. The HSV-1 strain generally appears in the orafacial organs. HSV2 usually resides in the sacral ganglion at the base of the spine. All herpes viruses are morphologically identical: they have a large double-stranded DNA genome and the virion consists of an icosahedral nucleo-capsid, which is surrounded by a lipid bilayer envelope.
• Isotype: IgG1 Kappa
• Clonality: Monoclonal
• Host: Mouse
• Purity: Protein A purified

Applications/Dilutions

• Dilutions:
  • Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin 1-2 ug/ml
• Application Notes: Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed): 1-2ug/ml for 30 minutes at RT. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires heating tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 45 min at 95C followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.
  Optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined.

Background

Herpes simplex type 1 (HSV-1) belongs to a family that includes HSV-2, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and Varicella zoster (chicken pox) virus amongst others. HSV-1 and HSV-2 are extremely difficult to distinguish from each other. Members of this family have a characteristic virion structure. The double stranded DNA genome is contained within an icosahedral capsid embedded in a proteinaceous layer (tegument) and surrounded by a lipid envelope, derived from the nuclear membrane of the last host, which is decorated with virus-specific glycoproteins spikes. These viruses are capable of entering a latent phase where the host shows no visible sign of infection and levels of infectious agent become very low. During the latent phase the viral DNA is integrated into the genome of the host cell.
