Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

Clone: GFAP-8255R

Product Details anti-GFAP Antibody

Binding Specificity: AA 100-200

Purpose: Recombinant GFAP (Astrocyte & Neural Stem Cell Marker) Antibody

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: 200ug/ml of Ab purified from Bioreactor Concentrate by Protein A/G.

Immunogen: Recombinant fragment (around aa100-200) of human GFAP protein (exact sequence is proprietary)

Isotype: IgG, kappa
