Biological Activity
Guidelines (Following is our recommended protocol. This protocol only provides a guideline, and should be modified according to your specific needs).
CypK assay[1] (express the antibody):
1. Thaw a vial of HEK suspension cells in a 250 mL flask containing 50 mL of expression medium supplemented with 100 units/mL penicillin, 100 μg/mL streptomycin, and 250 ng/mL amphotericin B. Keep the cells at 37 °C with 8% CO2 in humidified incubators equipped with a shaker at 125 rpm. Split cells to 0.3-0.5 x 106 cells/mL (every 2-3 days) at least 2 times before transfecting.
2. When a density of 2.5 x 106 cells/mL is reached (2-3 days after splitting), prepare a fresh solution of 100 mM CypK. For this purpose, weigh 64 mg of CypK, add 2.5 mL of 0.1 sodium hydroxide, vortex, spin down to recover all undissolved particles and sonicate.
3. Add 2.5 mL of CypK (100 mM in 0.1 M NaOH) to 42.5 mL of expression medium supplemented with antibiotics. Mix well, add 250 μL of 0.1 M HCl, and sterilize using a 0.22 μm filter.
4.Dilute 50 μg of HC and LC pKym1 plasmids to 2.5 mL with reduced serum medium. In a separate tube, dilute 135 μL of transfection reagent to 2.5 mL with reduced serum medium.
5. Five minutes after preparing the solutions, mix the plasmids and the transfection reagent solution and incubate for 20 min to allow the formation of complexes between the DNA and the transfection reagent.
6. In the meantime, centrifuge 125 million cells at the target density for 5 min at 500 x g, resuspend with the expression medium containing CypK and add the DNA–transfection reagent mixture.
7. After incubating cells for 20 h, add 250 μL of transfection reagent enhancers included in the kit.
8. Harvest antibodies from the supernatant 6-7 days after addition of CypK (no change of medium is required during expression).

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 3 mg/mL (11.71 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 3 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (30.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 3 mg/mL (11.71 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 3 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (30.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
