This protocol describes the storage of "homemade" purified antibodies. Antibodies from commercial sources are normally supplied with proper storage conditions. - [Read Storage of Purified Antibodies]
Ascitic fluid from B-cell-derived tumors is an extremely concentrated solution of specific antibodies. Ascitic fluid is often stored at -70ºC to prevent proteolytic degradation. - [Read Storage of Ascitic Fluid Protocol]
This protocol describes the methods of storage for antibody-containing sera. Antibodies are resistant to a broad range of mildly denaturing conditions, so long-term storage is relatively easy. - [Read Storage of Sera Protocol]
