LIVER FATTY ACID BINDING PROTEIN (L-FABP)

GWB-C478F4

The antibody can be used for immuno assays. immunohistology on frozen sections and Western blotting. In Western blotting the antibody cross reacts with rat L-FABP. This monoclonal antibody binds to human liver FABP of both natural and recombinant origin. It shows cross reactivity with rat L-FABP and no binding to human intestinal or heart FABP. Liver FABP is localized in the liver and intestinal epithelium. The antibody is useful to detect ischemic areas of human liver. Furthermore the antibody can be used for the purification of human L-FABP. The antibody is cross-reactive with baboon. dog. rat and swine.

Monomer (By similarity).
