Related Product Information for Alternative Block ELISA Blocking Buffer blocking buffer
Alternative Block is a protein-free, detergent-free ELISA blocking buffer. This unique blocking buffer contains a heterogeneous mixture of proprietary blockers and synthetic stabilizers that block the uncoated regions of the plate without the use of conventional cross-reactive protein additives or detergents.
Alternative Block minimizes non-specific binding interactions and reduces background noise. It also stabilizes the coated protein during long-term storage by providing a microhydrated environment for improved retention of antigen epitope and antibody binding activity. Room temperature blocking of the plate and long-term refrigerated storage of dried plates are made possible by an antimicrobial component.
Alternative Block is suitable for use in most monoclonal and polyclonal antibody capture ELISA tests (also known as sandwich ELISAs) and peptide/protein antigen-down ELISAs. When preparing plates, the antibody or antigen is typically coated using 50-200 uL of coating solution per well. After coating, plates are washed to remove unbound proteins and then blocked using a larger volume of blocking buffer than was used for coating, such as 300 uL per well. This ensures that all uncoated regions inside the well are blocked. A 96-well plate blocked using this method will require 28.8 mL of blocking solution. Allow 10% extra blocking buffer to account for losses during pipetting.

Product Notes
The Alternative Block ELISA Blocking Buffer (Catalog #AAA52764) is a Blocking Buffer and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Alternative Block ELISA Blocking Buffer, Blocking Buffer" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
