Thermo Scientific™ SEA BLOCK Blocking Buffer, 3 x 500 mL

Thermo Scientific SEA BLOCK Blocking Buffer is steelhead salmon serum in PBS that is especially useful as a blocking agent in IHC and other detection methods involving mammalian samples.

Because SEA BLOCK Blocking Buffer is fish serum, it is effective in stabilizing solutions and samples for antibody-binding interactions while at the same time minimizing the possibility of cross-reaction with mammalian sample components. When normal sera cause background in immunohistochemistry (IHC), try this product. The product is also especially effective in various cellular imaging protocols based on visible and near-infrared fluorescence detection.

Features

• Non-mammalian—fish proteins are less likely to have specific binding interactions with antibodies and other mammalian proteins present in typical methods
• Convenient—filtered and stabilized in PBS for compatibility with most assay systems
• Easy to use—can be used as supplied or diluted up to 10-fold as needed
• Flexible—may be used for many different applications, including as a diluent for antibodies

Contents

• Contains steelhead salmon serum in phosphate-buffered saline and 0.1% sodium azid, 3 x 500mL
