• Introduction: SARS Coronavirus is an enveloped virus containing three outer structural proteins, namely the membrane (M), envelope (E), and spike (S) proteins. Spike (S)-glycoprotein of the virus interacts with a cellular receptor and mediates membrane fusion to allow viral entry into susceptible target cells. Accordingly, S-protein plays an important role in virus infection cycle and is the primary target of neutralizing antibodies.
• Purity: SARS Mosaic Protein is >95% pure as determined by 10% PAGE (coomassie staining).
• Formulation: 25mM Tris-HCl, 0.4% sarcosyl, 0.25% Triton-100 and 50% glycerol.
• Stability: SARS Mosaic protein is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon arrival, store at -20°C.
• Usage: All the products are furnished for LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. The product may not be used as drugs, agricultural or pesticidal products, food additives or household chemicals.

Pharmaceutical Information

• Applications: SARS Mosaic antigen is suitable for ELISA and Western blots, excellent antigen for detection of SARS with minimal specificity problems.
