The Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP-1) recombinant antigen is expressed in E. coli and purified to greater than 90% homogeneity. This recombinant protein is suitable for immunoassay development and antibody detection studies related to malaria (P. falciparum). MSP-1 is a major surface antigen on the merozoite stage of P. falciparum and an important target in malaria serology, vaccine development, and diagnostic research.
Key Features
- Recombinant MSP-1 antigen expressed in E. coli.
- 6x His-tagged protein for purification and detection.
- High purity (>90% by SDS-PAGE) using metal affinity chromatography.
- Molecular weight: ~16 kDa.
- Supplied as purified liquid in carbonate buffer, pH 9.0.
- Preserved with 0.1% sodium azide for extended stability.
- Validated for ELISA and lateral flow immunoassays for antibody detection.
Applications
- Development of ELISA assays for malaria antibody detection.
- Use as conjugate antigen in lateral flow rapid tests.
- Malaria serology and vaccine research.
- Tool for malaria diagnostic and immunological R&D.
