Anti-BTC Antibody

Manufactured by Antibodies.com, this affinity-purified polyclonal reagent is raised in rabbit against a recombinant human betacellulin (BTC) immunogen and is intended for the qualitative detection of endogenous total BTC protein in research samples. The preparation is supplied as a 50 µl aliquot at a working concentration of 1.0 mg/mL in an unconjugated format, allowing users to couple the antibody to their preferred reporter or to use it directly in standard immunoassays. Validated applications include Western blotting and immunohistochemistry, where it has been benchmarked across human, mouse and rat specimens, making it a versatile choice for cross-species expression studies of the EGF-family ligand BTC. Storage is straightforward: the vial is shipped at 4 °C and should be aliquoted and frozen at –20 °C upon arrival, with repeated freeze/thaw cycles avoided to preserve binding activity. The reagent is offered through AFMS and is suitable for laboratory research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic applications. Researchers working on EGFR signalling, pancreatic beta-cell biology, or epithelial growth regulation will appreciate the polyclonal format, which targets multiple epitopes on BTC and can offer broader recognition of the native protein compared with monoclonal alternatives. Pair this antibody with appropriate secondary detection reagents and follow standard IHC antigen-retrieval or WB blocking protocols for reproducible results in cell-line lysates, tissue sections and primary samples.
