Anti-DARC Antibody

This rabbit polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com targets DARC (Duffy Antigen Receptor for Chemokines, also called ACKR1), a seven-transmembrane glycoprotein best known as the erythrocyte receptor that Plasmodium vivax uses to invade red blood cells, and as a non-signaling chemokine sink on vascular endothelium that scavenges inflammatory chemokines such as CXCL8 and CCL2. Raised in rabbit and supplied unconjugated, the reagent is validated for Western blot detection of the human, mouse, and rat proteins, supporting comparative studies in inflammation biology, malaria tropism, and chemokine-gradient research.

Each vial delivers 100 µl of antibody at 1 mg/ml, formulated in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) with 15 mM sodium azide at approximately pH 7.2 so the stock can be diluted directly into blocking buffer for Western blot workflows. Store refrigerated, keep protected from light, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve antibody activity across multiple experiments.
