Anti-MMP-13 Antibody

Manufactured by Antibodies.com, this research-grade reagent is a rabbit polyclonal antibody directed against matrix metallopeptidase 13 (MMP-13), supplied as a 50 µl liquid aliquot at 1 mg/ml in PBS containing 0.1% sodium azide and 50% glycerol. The unconjugated preparation is affinity-purified to an estimated purity of greater than 95% and is certified for Research Use Only, with the rabbit IgG isotype ensuring broad compatibility with standard secondary detection reagents. According to the supplier listing, the antibody is validated for Western Blot (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC) applications and shows cross-reactivity with Human, Mouse, and Rat samples, making it well suited for comparative studies of MMP-13 expression across species and tissue types. Shipped cold on wet ice, the product should be aliquoted upon arrival and stored at −20 °C, with repeated freeze/thaw cycles avoided to preserve activity. Distributed through Bio-Connect as an authorized channel for Antibodies.com, the catalog entry (A29921) is classified within Primary Antibodies and corresponds to UNSPSC code 12352203, providing procurement teams with a clear reference for inventory and ordering workflows. This combination of validated applications, multi-species reactivity, and a stabilized glycerol-based buffer makes the reagent a convenient choice for laboratories profiling collagenase-3 activity in normal and diseased tissues.
