Description

Outer Membrane Protein, Chlamydia Psittaci 6Bc is a purified protein antigen derived from the outer membrane of the *Chlamydia psittaci* bacterium, a key pathogen in veterinary and zoonotic diseases. This high-purity biological reagent is critical for the research, development, and production of diagnostic assays and vaccine candidates. It is primarily utilized by biotechnology firms, diagnostic manufacturers, and academic research institutions focused on veterinary health, infectious disease modeling, and immunology.

Application

• Diagnostic Kit Development: As a core antigen for ELISA, immunoblot, and lateral flow assays to detect *C. psittaci* antibodies in animal and human sera.
• Vaccine Research: Serving as a key immunogen in preclinical studies for the development of prophylactic vaccines against avian chlamydiosis (psittacosis).
• Immunological Studies: Used to study host-pathogen interactions, immune response mechanisms, and antigenic characterization of *C. psittaci*.
• Reference Standard: Acting as a purified quality control standard for the calibration and validation of diagnostic testing platforms.
• Antibody Production: Immunizing host animals to generate polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies specific to *C. psittaci* 6Bc outer membrane proteins.

Quality Control

Our Outer Membrane Protein, Chlamydia Psittaci 6Bc is produced and tested under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high biological activity. Each lot is characterized for purity, identity, and specificity using advanced analytical techniques. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity (by SDS-PAGE and HPLC), protein concentration, endotoxin levels, and functional activity in immunoassays is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store lyophilized material at -20°C or below. Reconstituted protein solutions should be aliquoted and stored at -70°C to -80°C to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure containers are sealed under inert, dry conditions.
