Anti-MDK Antibody

Manufactured by Antibodies.com, this Rabbit polyclonal reagent targets midkine (MDK), a heparin-binding growth factor implicated in neural development, inflammation, and tumor biology. The antibody is raised against a recombinant human MDK immunogen and affinity-purified to deliver specificity for the endogenous total MDK protein. It is supplied as an unconjugated preparation at 1.0 mg/mL in a 50 µL volume, buffered in phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.4) containing 150 mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide, and 50% glycerol, with no magnesium or calcium salts. The host species is Rabbit and the clonality is polyclonal, meaning the final reagent is a pool of immunoglobulin molecules recognising multiple epitopes across the MDK target. Validated applications include Western blot (WB) and immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence (ICC/IF), and the antibody has been confirmed to react with Human, Mouse, and Rat samples, making it suitable for cross-species studies in cell biology and oncology research. For handling, the product ships at 4 °C; on arrival it should be aliquoted and stored at –20 °C, with repeated freeze/thaw cycles avoided to preserve binding activity. Because the reagent is unconjugated, researchers can pair it with their preferred secondary antibody or fluorescent label, and it is intended for research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic applications.
