EV-ID
Multi-species EV characterisation kit for Western blot analysis
Mutli-Species EV characterisation kit for Western blot analysis
EV-ID kit allows to characterise EVs by detecting specific EV markers and a cellular contamination marker by Western blot analysis. EV characterisation after isolation is recommended to confirm that the isolated particles are EVs and not products of cell fragmentation or other contaminants, usually present in biological samples.
EV-ID kit allows the detection of 2 surface EV markers, CD9 and CD81 and 2 internal EV markers, Alix and Syntenin-1. Moreover, EV-ID kit includes the detection of Calnexin, a cellular contamination marker, that must be absent in the pure EV preparations.
Protocol steps
- EV resuspension in Laemmli buffer
- EV denaturation

- Incubation with primary antibodies
- Incubation with secondary antibodies
- HRP revelation
