Anti-17β-HSD4 Antibody

Manufactured by Antibodies.com, this primary antibody is a rabbit polyclonal reagent raised against 17β-HSD4 (17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 4, also known as HSD17B4 / DBP / MFE-2 / SDR8C1), generated using a synthetic peptide derived from the N-terminal region of the human protein. The antibody is affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by epitope-specific affinity chromatography and supplied in liquid form at 1 mg/ml in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide. Each vial contains 50 µl of unconjugated antibody, and the reagent is of the IgG isotype, intended for research use only in Western blot (WB) and ELISA applications, where it detects endogenous levels of 17β-HSD4. The polyclonal antibody has been validated for reactivity against human, mouse and rat samples, making it suitable for cross-species studies of peroxisomal fatty acid β-oxidation and steroid metabolism. For optimal stability, the product should be stored at -20 °C and is stable for up to one year under those conditions. Western blot analysis of HUVEC and K562 cell lysates is cited as a representative application example on the supplier page. The antibody is dispatched from Cambridge, UK, with a typical lead time of 6–9 business days, and is backed by the Antibodies.com 100% guarantee. Researchers working on steroidogenesis, peroxisomal disorders such as D-bifunctional protein deficiency, or fatty-acid oxidation pathways will find this polyclonal reagent a versatile addition to their antibody panel.
