Anti-ASIC5 Antibody

Raised in rabbit against the acid-sensing ion channel subunit ASIC5, this unconjugated polyclonal IgG reagent from Antibodies.com is supplied as a 200 µl vial and is validated for Western blot detection in mouse and rat samples. The antibody recognizes the target channel protein and produces a specific band in immunoblotting workflows consistent with the predicted molecular weight of ASIC5 in tissue lysates.

For best results, aliquot the antibody upon first use and store at -20 °C in working volumes to limit freeze-thaw cycles, protected from light. The polyclonal format offers broader epitope coverage than a monoclonal reagent, which is helpful when probing ASIC5 expression across different rodent tissues or when the precise linear epitope has not been mapped.

For Western blot, dilute the antibody in blocking buffer and incubate membranes using your standard chemiluminescent or fluorescent detection protocol with an anti-rabbit HRP or fluorescent secondary reagent. This reagent is intended for research use only and is not validated for diagnostic or therapeutic applications. Researchers studying neuronal acid-sensing pathways or comparative expression of ASIC family members in rodent models will find this antibody a useful addition to their immunoblotting panel.
