Source
IgY was purified from the egg yolks of unimmunized hens.

Product
liquid chicken IgY fraction (opaque, light yellow in color). Frozen; 0.5 mL. No sodium azide or preservative is present. This product has been filter sterilized. By SDS gel electrophoresis‚ the IgY purity is >80%.

Formulation: Phosphate buffered saline‚ pH 7.3 with No preservative added

Concentration: See vial for concentration.

Applications
Control antibody.

Storage
The antibody may be stored at +4°C. For prolonged storage prepare appropriate aliquots and store at -20°C. Repeated thawing and freezing should be avoided. Working dilutions should be stored at +4°C, not refrozen, and preferably used the same day. An aliquot should be thawed slowly at ambient temperature and centrifuged to remove precipitate. This may result in a thin lipid layer floating on top and/or a visible precipitate. Removal of either will not affect the performance or the concentration of the product.
