Shipping

Viral particles are shipped frozen on dry ice. Plasmid DNA (≥ 200ng) will also be included in the shipment.

Handling Advice

The lentivirus is generally referred to as BSL-2. AAV is usually considered BSL-1, but may require BSL-2 handling depending on the insert.

Storage

Store at -80°C. Thaw just before use and keep on ice.

Quality Control

Creative Biolabs ensures high-quality viral vectors by optimizing and standardizing production plans and implementing strict quality control (QC). The specific QC analysis performed for each virus batch is different.

Titer: The precise titer of the sample will be reported on the test tube. The potency you see on this page is the guaranteed minimum potency.

Q&As

What are the considerations for dosage and volume when using AAV-Thy1-EGFP in experiments?

The appropriate dosage and volume depend on the specific experimental design, including the target region, species, and age of the animals. Typically, researchers start with titers ranging from 10¹² to 10¹³ viral genomes per milliliter and volumes from 0.5 to 3 microliters. Pilot studies are recommended to optimize conditions for expression without causing toxicity or off-target effects.

How long does it take to observe EGFP expression after administration of AAV-Thy1-EGFP?

EGFP expression is generally observed within 1 to 2 weeks post-injection, with peak fluorescence usually occurring between 3 to 4 weeks. The exact timeline can vary based on factors such as the animal model, injection site, and viral titer. Monitoring expression over time is recommended to determine the optimal window for imaging or analysis.

Can AAV-Thy1-EGFP be used in combination with other viral vectors for multiplex experiments?

Yes, AAV-Thy1-EGFP can be effectively combined with other viral vectors to study different aspects of neuronal function or connectivity. When using multiple vectors, it is important to consider promoter compatibility and potential cross-reactivity. Selecting non-overlapping promoters and using different fluorophores can help ensure distinct labeling of neuronal populations.
