PepStar Antigen Collection Malaria Ultra
JPT Peptide Technologies applies its unique peptide microarray platform to generate peptide microarrays on glass slides displaying a versatile library (5346 15 mer peptides) with high coverage of Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmaodium vivax variants. Sequence diversity for all presented antigens was taken from www.malariagen.net. For Pl. falciparum proteins all mutations with an allele frequency greater 0.5% were considered. For Pl. vivax proteins all mutations were included. Each mutation is presented by a 15mer peptide with the mutation in central position. This peptide microarray can be used for high resolution epitope mapping, immunomonitoring and biomarker discovery. Peptides are immobilized on glass slides via a flexible linker by chemoselective coupling. The covalently attached peptides are displayed in three copies on each slide. Incubation can be performed manually or automated using only minimal amounts of your sample. Read-out via fluorescence results in low background and high sensitivity.
