GFAP Mouse, Unlabeled, Clone: 2E1, BD
Mouse Monoclonal Antibody
Brand: BD Biosciences 556329
Description
GFAP (Glial Fibrillary Acid Protein) is the major protein of glial filaments in differentiated astrocytes. BD PharMingen offers a panel of monoclonal antibodies (4A11, 1B4, 2E1) that specifically recognize GFAP. They do not cross-react with other intermediate filaments such as vimentin, neurofilament proteins, desmin, keratin, neurotubules or microfilaments. Bovine spinal cord homogenate was used as immunogen for clone 2E1. This antibody has broad species reactivity. It recognizes GFAP in brain homogenates from human, mouse, rat, cow, sheep, dog, pig, rabbit, guinea pig and chicken. 2E1 is particularly useful for identifying GFAP in immunohistochemistry of frozen and formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded brain tissue sections. Additional applications include western blot analysis and indirect immunofluorescence of tissue-cultured cells. The antibody is routinely tested by immunohistochemical staining of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded brain tissue samples, which were subjected to pretreatment with citrate or tissue unmasking fluid (see figure). Other applications were tested at BD Biosciences Pharmingen during antibody development only or reported in the literature.
