Anti-APCS Antibody

Raised in rabbit, this unconjugated polyclonal primary antibody from Antibodies.com targets human APCS (Serum Amyloid P Component), a pentraxin-family glycoprotein of approximately 25 kDa that circulates in serum and contributes to innate immunity, complement activation, and the deposition of amyloid fibrils in pathological tissue. The reagent is validated for Western blot and immunohistochemistry workflows on human samples and is supplied as 100 µl of liquid format suitable for detecting the endogenous protein in tissue sections and cell or tissue lysates.

Because APCS is a small, highly conserved pentraxin, polyclonal preparations are commonly chosen over monoclonals to maximize coverage across multiple epitopes of the mature protein and its precursor forms. The unconjugated format leaves the choice of secondary reagent to the user, allowing pairing with HRP, biotin, or fluorophore-conjugated anti-rabbit secondaries depending on the application and imaging platform.

For best stability, aliquot the antibody upon arrival and store at -20°C in working volumes, avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles of the stock solution. Centrifuge the vial briefly before each use to recover full volume. Intended for research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic applications.
