Anti-AIF1 Antibody

Polyclonal antibody raised in rabbit against Allograft Inflammatory Factor 1 (AIF1), a 17 kDa calcium-binding EF-hand protein that is constitutively expressed in macrophages, microglia, and other monocyte-lineage cells. The antibody is supplied by Antibodies.com as an unconjugated reagent at 1 mg/ml in PBS with 0.1% sodium azide and 50% glycerol as a cryoprotectant, allowing convenient storage at -20 degrees C with minimal freeze-thaw loss across repeated experiments.

Validated for Western blot and immunohistochemistry, the reagent detects endogenous AIF1 in samples of human, mouse, and rat origin, supporting studies of microglial activation, neuroinflammation, allograft rejection, and atherosclerotic plaque biology. The 100 ul volume is sufficient for multiple immunoblots and IHC runs, and the polyclonal format improves the likelihood of recognizing several epitopes on the target, which is useful when probing tissues that display different isoform expression patterns.

For researchers characterizing macrophage infiltration in tissue sections or AIF1 induction in cell lysates, this primary antibody from Antibodies.com provides a flexible tool across neuroscience, immunology, and vascular biology workflows. Intended for research use only, it should be handled as a standard laboratory reagent and aliquoted upon first use to preserve activity over its working shelf life.
