Giardia intestinalis CWP1
CWP1 is a Giardia intestinalis cyst wall protein 1 expressed and purified from Pichia pastoris. CWP1 is one of the principal targets for monoclonal antibodies to these intestinal parasitic protozoa in clinical specimens, which makes this protein useful for diagnosis of giardiasis, an intestinal disease caused by the infection by Giardia intestinalis.

Other information about Giardia intestinalis CWP1
Monomeric CWP1 is provided as a single polypeptide chain, maintaining the linear structure of Giardia intestinalis cyst wall protein 1. This format is recommended when targeting specific linear epitopes, for example in assays requiring precise monoclonal antibody binding or peptide-based immunoassays.
Trimeric CWP1 preserves the native trimeric structure of the cyst wall protein, ensuring that conformational epitopes remain accessible. This format is more suitable for diagnostic applications where reproducing the natural architecture of CWP1 enhances the detection of clinically relevant antibodies in patient samples.
Both formats are supplied in a glycerol-free buffer for optimal downstream compatibility.
