Hi James
we use mo-a-SV40 T Ag monoclonal antibody, clone PAb 416, which is known to cross-react with BK virus (Mann & Carroll; Virology, 1984; 138(2):379-85). The mAb used to be from Oncogene, which now is Merck. CatNo DP02. Working conc. is 2 ug/ml, pretreatment HIER high pH. Hope this helps.

Best regards

Betreff: [Histonet] BK Virus Antibody

We used to purchase our BK virus antibody from a company called Chemicon.  Apparently they were bought out by Millipore and the antibody is not available from them.   I need to get the antibody from a new source.   Any ideas?
