Stability Data

Stability tests were performed with StabilCoat stabilizer using either rabbit monoclonal or polyclonal IgG antibodies (see graph below).  Coated microtiter plates were stabilized with either StabilCoat stabilizer or 1% BSA. The antibody-coated plates were dried and placed at room temperature.  Percent retained activity was determined by comparing the activity of the aged antibody-coated microtiter plates to that of freshly coated plates.  After 30 months in StabilCoat stabilizer at room temperature, the monoclonal antibody retained 70% activity and the polyclonal antibody retained 95% activity.
