Clone No. | AFD-12D4 |
From | Recombinant Antibody |
Isotype | Engineer antibody |
Application | WB, ELISA |
Species Reactivity | Species independent |
Basic Information | |
Specificity | The antibody binds to morphine with an affinity (Kd) of 46 nM. |
Alternative Name | Morphium; (5alpha,6alpha)-17-Methyl-7,8-didehydro-4,5- epoxymorphinan-3,6-diol |
UniProt | |
Immunogen | Morphine-6-hemisuccinate conjugated with BSA. |
Application Notes | The antibody binds specifically to morphine, an alkaloid opiate drug derived from the opium poppy administered for the management of narcotic pain. Morphine exerts its effects by binding to μ opiate receptors in the central nervous system and gastrointestinal tract, leading to analgesia and sedation, thereby increasing the patient's tolerance to pain. The monoclonal antibody 12D4 recognises the N-methyl to N-allyl substitution in the conversion of morphine to nalorphine. |
