AnaSpec Introduces CEF Control Peptide Pool

PRLog (Press Release) – August 20, 2007 – San Jose, CA

One of the world’s largest providers of catalog peptides, AnaSpec introduced its CEF Control Peptide Pool. Previously available only individually, this group of peptides is now available pooled.

The CEF Control Peptide Pool is a group of 32 peptides, 8-12 amino acids in length, with sequences derived from the human Cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr Virus and Influenza Virus.
Used in the stimulation of IFN-release from CD8+ T cells in individuals with defined HLA types, these epitopes are useful in applications such as ELISPOT, intracellular cytokine and CTL assays.1-3

CEF peptides are available as pooled peptides at 0.25 mg each (cat# 61036-025) or 0.5 mg each (cat# 61036-05). All CEF peptides are provided as net weight based on peptide content. Certificate of Analysis includes data from mass spectrometry, HPLC and amino acid analysis.HLA Allele   Virus   Peptence    Solubility
