Background:

GFAP, a class-III intermediate filament, is a cell-specific marker that, during the development of the central nervous system, distinguishes astrocytes from other glial cells.

Specificity:

Recognizes endogenous levels of GFAP protein.

Alternative names:

Glial fibrillary acidic protein; GFAP

Species reactivity:

Mouse, Rat

Host:

Mouse

Ig type:

Liquid in 0.42% Potassium phosphate, 0.87% Sodium chloride, pH 7.3, 30% glycerol, and 0.01% sodium azide.

Immunogen:

KLH-conjugated synthetic peptide encompassing a sequence of mouse GFAP. The exact sequence is proprietary.

Purification & Purity:

The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).
