Application
Frozen Sections (1:12,000-1:15,000, ABC detection or 1:3000-1:5000, PAP detection; see comments)
Warning
Toxicity: Standard Handling (A)
Physical form
Undiluted serum.
Reconstitution
Reconstitute the lyophilized antibody with 100 µl sterile distilled H₂O. For storage, dilute with sterile PBS or Tris buffer at dilutions no higher than 1:10. Reconstitute the entire contents of the vial; during shipment and handling portions of the lyophilized pellet may have become dislodged and may not be in the bottom of the vial. Following reconstitution, aliquot and freeze (-20°C). Stock solutions are stable for up to 6 months at -20°C. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles of solutions.

Other Notes
Antibody specificity was examined in the rat thalamus and cerebellum. Glutaraldehyde is a necessary component of fixation for use with this antibody. Higher concentrations of glutaraldehyde (1%-2%) may be used as needed. The specificity of the antibody for GABA was evaluated using a competitive inhibition ELISA. A GABA conjugate control completely eliminated labeling, while 1000-fold excess of the following conjugates: alanine, aspartate, beta alanine, glutamate, glycine, taurine, and tyrosine did not inhibit the binding to the GABA conjugate control. Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.
