Recombinant monoclonal antibody to Lutein. Manufactured using AbAb’s Recombinant Platform with variable regions (i.e. specificity) from the hybridoma 6H8.
Alternative Name(s) of Target: Astaxanthin; xanthophyll; carotenoid; CHEBI:28838; CAS: 127-40-2; C40H56O2
Immunogen: The original antibody was generated by immunizing BALB/c mice with lutein-gold conjugated colloidal particles.
Specificity: This antibody binds lutein and also cross reacts with other xanthophylls like astaxanthin, meso-zeaxanthin or zeaxanthin. Lutein is a xanthophyll synthesized by plants and like other xanthophylls is found in high quantities in green leafy vegetables such as spinach, kale and yellow carrots.
Application Notes: The binding reactivity of the original antibody towards lutein and astaxanthin was determined using ELISA (WO2018115885).
