Anti-FGF-18 Antibody

Manufactured by Antibodies.com, this rabbit polyclonal reagent targets fibroblast growth factor 18 (FGF-18), also known by the synonym zFGF5, and is affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using an epitope-specific immunogen derived from the C-terminal region of human FGF-18. The unconjugated IgG antibody is supplied as a 50µl liquid at 1 mg/mL in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide, and is validated for ELISA and Western blot (WB) applications with confirmed reactivity against human, mouse and rat samples. To preserve activity, the vial is shipped at 4°C and should be aliquoted and stored at -20°C upon arrival, with repeated freeze/thaw cycles avoided. The polyclonal antibody specifically detects endogenous levels of FGF-18 protein, making it suitable for research workflows that require sensitive recognition across multiple species, while remaining intended strictly for research use and not for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
