Application Notes

Specificty of the original mouse IgG1 version of this antibody to SARS-CoV-2 was confirmed by ELISA (Terry et al., 2021; pmid: 33714753). mBG86 is a particularly useful antibody as it can be used to detect SARS-Cov-2 N protein and differentiate it from SARS-CoV. Western blot analysis demonstrated that this antibody exhibits two band labeling, suggesting a specificity for conformational epitopes on the N protein (Terry et al., 2021; pmid: 33714753). This antibody was shown to detect SARS-CoV-2 N protein in methanol-stained Vero cells by immunofluorescence (Terry et al., 2021; pmid: 33714753). Finally, the original version of mBG86 was demonstrated to be an effective detection antibody in a sandwich ELISA assay suggesting it's potential use in SARS-Cov-2 diagnostics (Terry et al., 2021; pmid: 33714753).

Short Description

This chimeric ferret antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse IgG1 format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
