Anti-DEFB132 Antibody

This unconjugated Rabbit polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com targets DEFB132 (Beta-Defensin 132), a small cationic antimicrobial peptide of the innate immune system. Beta-defensin 132 is most prominently expressed in the male reproductive tract, with strong localization in the epididymis, and has been investigated for roles in sperm maturation, mucosal defense, and epithelial barrier protection. The antibody is supplied as a 100 µl liquid aliquot and is validated for Western blot and immunohistochemistry on human samples. The polyclonal format provides recognition of multiple epitopes on the target, which can be helpful when studying processed or modified forms of this defensin peptide. Unconjugated presentation gives laboratories flexibility to choose their own secondary detection chemistry, including HRP, biotin, or fluorescent reporters depending on the assay. Researchers working on reproductive biology, mucosal immunology, or antimicrobial peptide function can use this reagent for in vitro studies, and it is intended for research use only.
