Anti-MCP-2 Antibody

Raised in rabbit against the human MCP-2 chemokine (also known as CCL8), this polyclonal primary antibody from Antibodies.com is supplied unconjugated at 100 µl per vial and is validated for western blot and ELISA workflows. MCP-2 is a member of the CC chemokine family and acts through receptors including CCR1, CCR2, and CCR5 to recruit monocytes, lymphocytes, and NK cells to inflamed tissue, so the reagent is commonly used to study monocyte trafficking, leukocyte recruitment, and inflammatory signaling in human cell and tissue samples. Because the antibody is polyclonal, it binds multiple epitopes on the target, which can be helpful when endogenous MCP-2 expression is low or when working with partially denatured lysates on immunoblots. The host species is rabbit, the clonality is polyclonal, the conjugate is unconjugated, and the reactivity profile is human, with no fluorophore or enzyme label attached so the end user can choose their own secondary detection chemistry. The format is a single liquid vial of 100 µl intended for research use only and is suited to standard immunoblotting loading amounts as well as antigen capture assay development.
