Biotin antibody

Catalog No. ABIN6936505

Product Details anti-Biotin Antibody

Target: Biotin

Reactivity: Please inquire

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Biotin antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Flow Cytometry (FACS), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunostaining (ISt), Confocal Microscopy (CM)

Specificity: It recognizes both the free and protein-conjugated (either soluble or cell bound) form of biotin. This MAb is highly specific to biotin and shows no cross-reaction with other structurally related compounds. It has a very high affinity for biotin and is excellent for use in various amplification techniques. In some applications, localization of biotinylated probes with avidin produces unacceptably high background staining. Anti-biotin antibody may be substituted to decrease this noise.

Purification: Purified by Protein A/G

Immunogen: Biotinylated sheep immunoglobulin

Clone: Hyb-8

Isotype: IgG1 kappa
