Anti-IFIH1 Antibody

Manufactured by Antibodies.com, this polyclonal primary antibody is raised in rabbit and specifically targets IFIH1 (interferon-induced helicase C domain-containing protein 1), a cytosolic pattern recognition receptor involved in innate immune sensing of viral RNA. The reagent is supplied as an unconjugated antiserum at a working concentration of 1.0 mg/ml in a 50 µl format, suitable for a wide range of research applications including Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Immunofluorescence (IF). Its reactivity profile is validated for human samples, where it can be used to detect endogenous IFIH1 protein in cell and tissue preparations. The polyclonal nature of the antibody allows recognition of multiple epitopes on the target, generally yielding robust signal intensity across the recommended assays, while the unconjugated format gives the user full flexibility to choose their own secondary detection system and fluorophore or enzyme label. As a Research Use Only reagent, it is intended for laboratory investigation of MDA5/IFIH1 signalling, type I interferon responses and antiviral defence pathways. Standard short-term storage at 2–8 °C is recommended for routine use, with aliquoting and freezing at –20 °C advised for long-term preservation to maintain antibody stability and performance across repeated experiments.
