Anti-Collagen I alpha2 Antibody

Raised in rabbit, this unconjugated polyclonal antibody recognizes the alpha-2 chain of human type I collagen, a fibrillar extracellular matrix protein encoded by the COL1A2 gene. Provided as a 100 µl liquid aliquot, the reagent is intended for Western blot and immunofluorescence workflows on human samples, supporting studies of connective tissue biology, dermal and bone matrix composition, and fibrotic remodeling. From Antibodies.com, this primary antibody enables detection of procollagen and mature collagen forms, allowing researchers to probe biosynthesis, secretion, and deposition of type I collagen in cell culture and tissue sections. The polyclonal format offers epitope diversity across the alpha-2 chain, useful when characterizing splice variants, processing intermediates, or disease-associated collagen modifications in research use only applications.
