Manufacturer - Type	Primary Antibody
Manufacturer - Category	Cell Markers, Glial and Schwann Cell Markers
Manufacturer - Targets	Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP)
Country of Origin	United States
Storage Conditions	Store at 4°C in the dark. Under these conditions, the antibodies should have a shelf life of at least twelve months, provided they remain sterile. For longer term storage, aliquot and freeze to avoid freeze-thaw of the antibody.
Molecular Weight	50 kDa
Concentration	2 mg/mL (based on absorbance at 280 nm)
Buffer	Phosphate-buffered (10 mM) isotonic (0.9%, w/v) saline ("PBS" pH 7.2) with bovine serum albumin (BSA, 0.5%) added to prevent absorption to the plastic and sodium azide (0.02%, w/v) added as a preservative
Quality Control	Quality assurance analysis was performed using immunohistochemistry (at a dilution of 1:5000) using fluorescein-labeled goat anti-chicken IgY (1:500 dilution, Aves Labs Cat.# F-1005) as the secondary reagent.
Description	Our Anti-Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) chicken polyclonal primary antibody from Aves Labs is produced in-house. It detects human, mouse, and rat Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP), and is IgY fraction. It is great for use in IHC, ICC, WB.
Manufacturer - Statement	We produce our Anti-Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) chicken polyclonal primary antibody. It is great in IHC, ICC, WB and is IgY fraction.
Target Description	Human Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) is a 49, 749 dalton protein (432 amino acids) expressed by astrocytes of the central nervous system. GFAP is an intermediate filament protein and acts as an intra-cellular structural component of the astrocytic cytoskeleton. During embryonic and fetal life, GFAP is also expressed by radial glial cells of the CNS. Rare mutations of the GFAP gene in humans result in Alexander’s disease, one of the leukodystrophies.

Usage Statement	These antibodies are to be used as research laboratory reagents and are not for use as diagnostic or therapeutic reagents in humans.
Production Notes	Antibodies were prepared by injecting laying hens first with highly purified recombinant human GFAP (produced in bacteria), followed by boosts of native GFAP protein purified from bovine spinal cords. After a series of boosts, eggs were collected from hyperimmunized animals and the IgY fraction prepared.
