BackgroundChlorpyrifos is an insecticide belonging to the group of organophosphothioates. It is used in the culture of vegetables and in citrus orchards. Chlorpyrifos is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor and as such highly toxic, having an effect on the nerve system. There is evidence that chlorpyrifos has an effect on the fetus that may lead to behavioural disorders and lowered concentration.

ApplicationsThe antibody may be used in ELISA and IAC.Application notesDepending on conjugate: dilution 1/100,000 from the delivered solution. (The titer is defined as the dilution that gives 50 % of the absorbance from the maximum absorbance when tested with ELISA).Suggested concentration to use in ELISA: 1/100,000 from the delivered solution. Plates are coated with 400 ng/ml OVA-conjugated chlorpyrifos. HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG as a tracer 1/8,000.

StorageStore at 4 °C or aliquot and store at -20 °C for longer periods.Precautions should be taken upon storage for longer periods. Problems of long term stability may occur with highly diluted solutions.No other preservative agent has been added to the present formulation. For long storage purposes in solution the addition of sodium azide at 0.02 % is advised with the appropriate precautions of use.
