Related Product Information for 6,6'-Trehalose Dimycolate accessory reagent
6,6'-Trehalose Dimycolate (Cord Factor, source: Mycobacterium bovis, Bacillus Calmette Guerin) 6,6'-dimycoloyl-a-D-trehalose (Mycobacterium bovis, BCG) is used as an immunoadjuvant for the induction and non-specific stimulation of antibody production against unrelated antigens. This results in an increased host resistance against infections and cancer, in the potentiation of vaccine immunogeneticity and in an increase of DNA vaccination efficacy.
6'6-Trehalose dimycolate (TDM) exhibits strong immunomodulatory effects, greatly enhancing the efficacy of DNA vaccination, shown to facilitate single-shot prime-boost DNA vaccines (3). TDM from M. bovis has a lower granulomatogenic activity as compared to TDM from M. tuberculosis (5). Preinjection of TDM followed by antigen injection triggers elevated antibody production (2). TDM stimulates macrophages, enhances non-specific immune responses and stimulates the antigen-presenting ability (7, 10). TDM Exhibits anti-tumor activity (2). TDM induces the production of both Th1-type and Th2-type cytokines (IFN-alpha, IFN-beta, IFN-gamma, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, TNF-alpha) as well as chemokines (MCP-1, MIP-1alpha, IL-8) (4, 6, 8, 9,11). TDM upregulates MHC class II expression on macrophages and causes expansion of Th1 cells (9). TDM is non-toxic on organisms and serves as protection against killing from macrophages. TDM becomes antigenic and highly toxic, when exposed to lipid surfaces.

Product Notes
The 6,6'-Trehalose Dimycolate (Catalog #AAA14806) is an Accessory Reagent produced from Mycobacterium bovis, Bacillus Calmette Guerin and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's 6,6'-Trehalose Dimycolate can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunoadjuvant. Immunoadjuvant: 100ug-1mg TDM/ml Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the 6,6'-Trehalose Dimycolate for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "6,6'-Trehalose Dimycolate, Accessory Reagent" 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
