Anti-Hepatitis C Virus NS3 Antibody [806]

Produced by Antibodies.com as a research-grade mouse monoclonal reagent, this IgG2a antibody (clone 806) targets the NS3 non-structural protein of human hepatitis C virus. The unconjugated, lyophilised 100 µg format is suited to ELISA and Western blot workflows investigating viral protein expression, replication intermediates, and NS3 protease-helicase inhibitor screening.

NS3 is a multifunctional viral enzyme essential for HCV polyprotein cleavage and RNA unwinding during replication, so robust monoclonal detection supports both basic virology and antiviral drug discovery programmes. The reagent is reactive with human hepatitis C virus isolates and is used in cell-culture infection models, recombinant antigen validation assays, and characterisation of viral protease activity.

Reconstitution in sterile buffer is recommended before use, and aliquots should be stored refrigerated to preserve activity across multiple freeze-thaw cycles when working with smaller volumes for repeated ELISA or WB runs.
