This antibody recognises Methotrexate, a drug originally manufactured as a chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment or a number of cancers. Methotrexate also acts as a disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug used for the treatment of autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, Chron's disease and vasculitis.Sheep anti methotrexate antibody exhibits the following cross reactivities with related compounds:-Aminopterin18% Folic acid<0.01% Dyhydrofolic acid<0.01% Tetrahydrofolic acid<0.01% N-5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid<0.01% Folinic acid<0.01% N-(p-Aminobenzoyl)-L-glutamic acid<0.01%
