Anti-FGF-5 Antibody

Offered by Antibodies.com, this affinity-purified reagent is a Rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against FGF-5 (Fibroblast growth factor 5), also known by the synonyms HBGF-5, Heparin-binding growth factor 5, and Smag-82. The immunogen is a synthesized peptide derived from the C-terminal region of human FGF-5, and the antibody specifically detects endogenous levels of the FGF-5 protein. It is supplied at 50 µl per vial as an unconjugated, liquid formulation in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide, at a concentration of 1 mg/mL. The host species is Rabbit, the clonality is Polyclonal, and the isotype is IgG. Validated applications include Western Blot (WB) and ELISA, and the antibody has been characterized for use on Human samples. For handling, the product is shipped at 4 °C; upon receipt it should be aliquoted and stored at -20 °C, with freeze/thaw cycles avoided to preserve activity. Each lot is affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by epitope-specific affinity chromatography, ensuring high specificity for the target. This reagent is intended for research use only and is not for diagnostic or therapeutic applications.
