Anti-FGF5 Antibody

This unconjugated polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com targets fibroblast growth factor 5 (FGF5), a heparin-binding member of the FGF family implicated in hair cycle regulation, embryonic morphogenesis, and signaling in certain tumor contexts. Raised in rabbit, the antibody is supplied at 1 mg/ml in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) supplemented with 0.05% sodium azide at approximately pH 7.3, packaged as a 50 µl vial.

Validated for Western blot (WB), the antibody detects FGF5 in human, rat, and mouse samples, supporting comparative studies across these model systems and endogenous tissues. The polyclonal format recognizes multiple epitopes, which helps when probing low-abundance targets or denatured lysates.

For handling, refrigerate the vial in its supplied buffer; aliquoting extends usable life across freeze-thaw cycles during longer projects. The unconjugated presentation lets researchers pair the reagent with HRP, fluorescent, or biotin secondary labels of their choice, supporting research use only applications in signaling pathway characterization and expression profiling work.
