{"product_id":"biolegend-644710","title":"Biolegend, 644710, Brilliant Violet 421™ anti-GFAP Antibody, 100μg","description":"\u003cp\u003eGFAP is expressed exclusively in astrocytes in the central nervous system. The protein is a member of the intermediate filament family of proteins which form networks providing support and strength to cells. This antibody does not cross-react with other intermediate filaments such as vimentin, neurofilament proteins, desmin and others. More than 50 GFAP mutations have been identified to be associated with the Alexander disease.\u003cbr\u003e\n100μg\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Mouse\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Bovine spinal cord homogenate\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide and BSA (origin USA).\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and conjugated with Brilliant Violet 421™ under optimal conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: 0.2 mg\/mL\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C, and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication: IHC-F - Quality testedICC, IHC-P - Verified\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunohistochemical staining on frozen tissue sections. For immunohistochemistry, a concentration range of 1.25 - 5.0 µg\/mL is suggested. For immunocytochemistry, a concentration range of 2.5 - 5.0 μg\/mL is recommended. For immunohistochemical staining on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections, the suggested use of this reagent is 5.0 - 10 µg per mL. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application. Brilliant Violet 421™ excites at 405 nm and emits at 421 nm. The standard bandpass filter 450\/50 nm is recommended for detection. Brilliant Violet 421™ is a trademark of Sirigen Group Ltd. Learn more about Brilliant Violet™.
