AAV5 Empty Capsids (purity> 95%)

Overview
- Purified empty adeno-associated virus 5 capsids (AAV5)
  Packaging Plasmid: pDP5rs
  Quality check: Final titer was assigned on internal reference material using two AAV5 ELISA kits (PRAAV5 and PRAAV5XP); QC included analysis of filling grade and Endotoxin testing
  
  KEY FEATURES
  • Fully assembled, empty AAV5 capsids
  • Serotype-specific conformational epitopes
  • Reliable positive control for dot blot, western blot, ELISA
  • Quality controlled for purity, AAV titer and filling grade
  • Alignment to internal reference standard material

  Background
  
  The AAV5 empty capsids consist of fully assembled, empty AAV5 capsids and have a titer of > 5.0E+12 capsids/ml. Final concentrations are lot-specific and can be found on the corresponding vial.
  
  The AAV5 empty capsids are provided with titers above 5.0E+12 capsids/ml in a liquid formulation. Since the buffer does not contain any stabilizing proteins or dyes, the capsids can be used in various applications, including dot blot, western blot and ELISA. The lot-specific titers were assigned according to our internally established standard material* using two different AAV5 ELISA (PRAAV5 and PRAAV5XP).
  Our comprehensive quality control ensures well-characterized capsid material which can be implemented as reference material in a variety of assays to prove the validity of the corresponding assay.
  
  We also offer empty capsid material for the AAV serotypes 1, 2, 6, 8 and 9.

Applications

Application

Dot blot; ELISA; WB

Application	Dilutions
Dot Blot	Depending on primary antibody and detection method
ELISA	As a positive control in ELISA, dilute in ASSB 1x (provided with our AAV5 ELISA) and analysis at least in duplicates is recommended
Western Blot (WB)	Depending on primary antibody and detection method

Datasheet

Analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) of the AAV1 empty capsids shows a strong peak in the 65S range typical for empty capsid with a very small peak of 80-100S corresponding to DNA containing capsids. Capsids were centrifuged at 18000 rpm with 120 scans (1/min) and detected by interference.

SDS PAGE with AAV5 empty capsids. The AAV5 VP1, VP2 and VP3 proteins were separated on a 10% SDS PAGE and visualized by Pierce Silver stain kit. Only VP1, VP2 and VP3 proteins in the correct stoichiometry of 1:1:10 are detectable indicating a purity of the AAV preparation of > 95%.
