Antibody DetailsProduct DetailsReactive Species Mouse Host Species Armenian Hamster Recommended Dilution Buffer Product Concentration ≥ 5.0 mg/ml Endotoxin Level < 1.0 EU/mg as determined by the LAL method Purity ≥95% monomer by analytical SEC ⋅ >95% by SDS Page Formulation This monoclonal antibody is aseptically packaged and formulated in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline (150 mM NaCl) PBS pH 7.2 - 7.4 with no carrier protein, potassium, calcium or preservatives added. Due to inherent biochemical properties of antibodies, certain products may be prone to precipitation over time. Precipitation may be removed by aseptic centrifugation and/or filtration. Product Preparation Functional grade preclinical antibodies are manufactured in an animal free facility using in vitro cell culture techniques and are purified by a multi-step process including the use of protein A or G to assure extremely low levels of endotoxins, leachable protein A or aggregates. Storage and Handling Functional grade preclinical antibodies may be stored sterile as received at 2-8°C for up to one month. For longer term storage, aseptically aliquot in working volumes without diluting and store at ≤ -70°C. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles.

This monoclonal antibody was purified using multi-step affinity chromatography methods such as Protein A or G depending on the species and isotype. Background Interferons (IFN) consist of two classes. The type I IFN class consists of 20 highly similar IFN-α proteins and a single IFN-ß protein. The second class, type II IFN, consists of a single protein, IFN-γ. IFN-α and IFN-ß signal through the same cell surface receptor IFNAR1 and have a similar range of biological activities including antiviral and antiproliferative activity. The type I IFNs also influence activation, growth and differentiation of T cells, B cells, macrophages, NK cells and other cell types such as endothelial cells and fibroblasts. IFN-ß has recently proven to be beneficial in patients with multiple sclerosis and could also be a potential therapy for rheumatoid arthritis. It is unclear what cellular mechanisms are involved in IFN-ß’s therapeutic effects, but they may be caused by a restoration of balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines.

It may occasionally generate incorrect or incomplete responses. Please do not rely solely on its recommendations when making purchasing decisions or designing experiments. Clone MIB-5E9.1 is a monoclonal antibody specific for mouse interferon-beta (IFN-?), and in in vivo mouse studies, it is primarily used to neutralize or block endogenous IFN-? activity to assess its functional role in various biological processes. The antibody is validated for functional (in vivo) use, as well as for techniques such as Western blotting. In practice:
In summary, clone MIB-5E9.1 is used in vivo in mice to neutralize IFN-?, enabling mechanistic dissection of interferon-beta-dependent activities during infection, tumor growth, and immunological challenges. The antibody is produced in functional, in vivo-grade formulations with low endotoxin levels, optimized for safe administration in animal studies. The correct storage temperature for the sterile packaged clone MIB-5E9.1 antibody is undiluted at 2°C to 8°C (refrigerator temperature). This means you should keep the product in a standard laboratory refrigerator and do not freeze it. Additional context and supporting information:
Key points:
Commonly used antibodies and proteins alongside MIB-5E9.1 (an anti-mouse IFN-? monoclonal antibody) in the literature include other cytokine and checkpoint antibodies, particularly those involved in immune cell activation and inhibition. Key co-used antibodies/proteins:
In representative protocols, MIB-5E9.1 is paired most often with antibodies targeting immune checkpoints (such as PD-1/PD-L1 pathways), other cytokines like IFN-?, as well as functional readouts such as BrdU and ELISpot assays for cellular proliferation and activation. Other potentially co-used markers (dependent on the specific research context) include:
This pattern is supported by experimental descriptions in the literature, where MIB-5E9.1 is not typically used in isolation but as part of a broader immunological panel to dissect the interplay between type I interferon signaling and immune checkpoint regulation. Based on the available search results, there is no direct evidence from primary scientific literature outlining specific research findings or experimental outcomes directly attributed to the use of clone MIB-5E9.1, a monoclonal antibody targeting mouse interferon-beta (IFN-?). Instead, the available references describe the properties, characteristics, and recommended applications of this antibody, but do not detail novel biological insights, mechanisms, or key experimental results generated using the antibody in published studies. Summary of Available InformationClone MIB-5E9.1 is a well-characterized Armenian hamster monoclonal antibody that specifically recognizes mouse IFN-?. Its main applications in the cited documents include:
No key experimental findingssuch as novel discoveries about IFN-? signaling, cellular responses, or disease mechanismsare described in the available pages as originating from studies using this clone. There are no peer-reviewed publications or detailed experimental results cited that use MIB-5E9.1 to uncover new biological functions of IFN-? or to dissect molecular pathways. Additional ContextThe sources describe general background on IFN-?, including its classification as a type I interferon, its signaling through the IFNAR1/2 receptors, and its roles in antiviral defense, immune cell modulation, and potential therapeutic applications in diseases like multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. However, these are not findings attributable to clone MIB-5E9.1 itself, but rather general information about IFN-? biology. ConclusionThere are no key scientific findings linked directly to the use of clone MIB-5E9.1 in the cited literature. The available documents focus on the antibodys technical specifications, recommended uses for detection and neutralization of mouse IFN-?, and general facts about IFN-? biologynot on original research or discoveries made possible by this clone. For detailed experimental results using this antibody, a direct search of primary research articles citing MIB-5E9.1 would be necessary.
