Merck, T2684-1ML, TiterMax® Gold Adjuvant

General description
TiterMax Gold Adjuvant contains three essential ingredients: a new block copolymer, CRL-8300, squalene (a metabolizable oil) and a sorbitan monooleate.
Application
TiterMax® Gold Adjuvant has been used:
to emulsify soluble antigen-1 (Ag-1) to immunize animals to generate fully human monoclonal antibodies from XenoMouse strains
to inject GST-dGIPC (Drosophila homolog of GAIP interacting protein) protein into rats for generating antibodies against dGIPC protein
with Drosophila CtBP (dCtBP) protein in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) to subcutaneously inject in a New Zealand female rabbit

Biochem/physiol Actions
Specific proteins can be emulsified with equal volume of TiterMax® Gold Adjuvant to immunize lab animals and extract antibodies from them.
TiterMax Gold is a new and improved water-in-oil adjuvant. By developing a new block copolymer and eliminating the silica from the formulation, TiterMax Gold appears to be less toxic and more effective than TiterMax Classic. The optimum volume of TiterMax Gold for an emulsion is twice that of TiterMax Classic.
