Anti-CRYAA Antibody

Offered through the Antibodies.com catalogue, this affinity-purified polyclonal reagent is raised in rabbit against a recombinant human CRYAA immunogen and is intended for the detection of endogenous alpha-crystallin A chain (also known as CRYA1, HSPB4, or heat shock protein beta-4). Supplied unconjugated at 1.0 mg/mL in a 50 µL volume, the antibody is formulated in phosphate-buffered saline (without Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺) at pH 7.4 with 150 mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide, and 50% glycerol as a cryoprotectant. The polyclonal preparation has been affinity-purified using the immunogen and is validated for Western blotting applications, with reactivity confirmed against human, mouse, and rat samples, making it a versatile reagent for cross-species expression studies of the small heat-shock protein CRYAA. Storage and shipping conditions are straightforward: the vial is shipped at 4 °C, after which it should be aliquoted and stored at –20 °C, with freeze/thaw cycles avoided to preserve antibody integrity. Researchers working on lens biology, ophthalmic disease models, or stress-response pathways will appreciate the small-pack size that minimises waste while still providing enough material for multiple western blot experiments. As with all Antibodies.com primary antibodies, the product is designated for research use only and is not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic applications.
