Description
This Protein-A purified polyclonal guinea pig antiserum was specifically prepared to provide investigators with an insulin antiserum that demonstrates preferential binding to insulin glargine (Lantus?), a widely-used basal insulin therapeutic. The antiserum is suitable for use in ELISAs/RIAs, as an immunoaffinity capture reagent in LC-MS/MS assays and for preparation of serum QCs for use in assays to detect and characterize ADA to glargine. The immunogen consisted of pharma-grade insulin glargine. Following immunization and boosting, the guinea pig antiserum was purified by a multi-stepped process which culminated in Protein-A column chromatography to yield the purified antiserum. This resulting antiserum displays preferential binding for insulin glargine with only native insulin having more than 50% cross-reactivity. Suggested starting dilutions are: ELISA: 1/1,000 , RIA: 1/5,000, and Immunoaffinity capture: 1/500
