| Name | Rabbit anti-Oxytocin Antibody | 
| 中文名字 | 兔抗催产素抗体 | 
| Description | The Oxytocin antiserum was quality control tested using standard immunohistochemical methods. The antiserum demonstrates strongly positive labeling of rat hypothalamus using indirect immunofluorescent and biotin/avidin-HRP techniques. Recommended primary dilution is 1/4,000 – 1/8,000 in PBS/0.3% Triton X-100 – Bn/Av-HRP. |

| APPLICATION | |
| Quality Control | The Oxytocin antiserum was quality control tested using standard immunohistochemical methods. The antiserum demonstrates significant labeling of rat hypothalamus using indirect immunofluorescent and biotin/avidin-HRP techniques. Staining is completely eliminated by pretreatment of 1 mL of the diluted antibody with 5 mg of oxytocin. Pretreatment of 1 mL of the diluted antibody with as much as 100 mg of vasopressin does not diminish staining | 
| Tissue | Rat hypothalamus (PVN/SON) | 
| Perfusion Fixation | |
| Absorption Control | Oxytocin 5 ug/mL diluted serum Vasopressin 100 ug/mL diluted serum | 
| Sections | 10 µm cryostat or 50 µm vibratome | 
| Tissue Incubation | 18–24 hours at 2°–8°C | 
| Detection System | Use IF or Bn/Av-HRP reagents at dilutions recommended by the manufacturers. | 
| Suggested Dilution | 1/10,000 – 1/15,000 in PBS/0.3% Triton X-100 – Bn/Av-HRP immunohistochemistry | 
| NOTES | |
| Special Instructions | It is recommended that the researcher perform a primary antibody dilution series using our dilution recommendations as a guideline. Note that a change in the fixation or buffering system from our protocol may change the configuration of the protein which could alter the reactivity with the tissue tested. | 
| Concentration | Not applicable. Antibody concentration is only relevant for purified antibodies. | 
| Storage | After reconstitution, use immediately or refrigerate at 2º–8ºC up to 2 days. For long-term storage, aliquot antibody and freeze at -15°C or lower. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles |
