Qiagen introduces ImmunEasy Mouse Adjuvant, a new type of adjuvant provided as a ready-to-use aqueous suspension, specifically designed to induce high antibody titers in mice
Ease of handling, rapid induction of high antibody titers, and a non-toxic formulation make ImmunEasy Mouse Adjuvant the ideal adjuvant for mouse immunisation.
ImmunEasy Mouse Adjuvant is provided as a ready-to-use aqueous suspension that is easily mixed with antigen in a single, simple step.
ImmunEasy Mouse Adjuvant avoids the tedious mixing procedures required for Freund's adjuvant and other water-in-oil emulsions, as well as problems associated with improperly prepared adjuvant-antigen mixes.
High antibody titers are induced by ImmunEasy Mouse Adjuvant using up to 10-fold less antigen than required by some other adjuvants.
Furthermore, boosting can be performed after two weeks, saving time and the costs of animal housing.
ImmunEasy Mouse Adjuvant contains immunostimulatory CpG DNA in a stable, safe, and highly effective formulation.
Because the immune response induced by CpG DNA is based on a natural reaction, ImmunEasy Mouse Adjuvant does not induce symptoms of toxicity in immunised animals.
ImmunEasy Mouse Adjuvant can be used with most types of antigens, including peptides, soluble proteins, virus-like particles, whole cell preparations, and polysaccharide conjugates.
ImmunEasy Mouse Adjuvant is supplied with a handbook containing a detailed protocol for immunization of mice.
