GFAP antibody (AA 101-200)

Catalog No. ABIN6939507

Product Details anti-GFAP Antibody

Target: GFAP (Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP))

Binding Specificity: AA 101-200

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This GFAP antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Flow Cytometry (FACS), Staining Methods (StM)

Specificity: This MAb recognizes a protein of ~50 kDa which is identified as Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP). It shows no cross-reaction with other intermediate filament proteins. GFAP is specifically found in astroglia. GFAP is a very popular marker for localizing benign astrocyte and neoplastic cells of glial origin in the central nervous system. Antibody to GFAP is useful in differentiating primary gliomas from metastatic lesions in the brain and for documenting astrocytic differentiation in tumors outside the CNS.

Purification: Purified by Protein A/G

Immunogen: Recombinant human GFAP protein fragment (around aa 101-200) (exact sequence is proprietary)

Clone: GFAP-2076

Isotype: IgG1 kappa

Application Details

Application Notes:
