Anti-MMP3 Antibody

Manufactured by Antibodies.com, this affinity-purified polyclonal reagent is raised in rabbit against a recombinant human MMP3 immunogen and is intended for the detection of endogenous matrix metalloproteinase-3 (also known as stromelysin-1, transin-1, SL-1, and STMY1). The unconjugated IgG antibody is supplied at a concentration of 1.0 mg/mL in 50 µL of phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.4) containing 150 mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide, and 50% glycerol, with no magnesium or calcium salts added. It is validated for Western blot and immunohistochemistry applications and has been confirmed to cross-react with human, mouse, and rat samples, making it a flexible choice for translational research across species. For best results, the vial should be shipped cold at 4 °C upon arrival, after which it should be aliquoted and stored long-term at –20 °C, with repeated freeze/thaw cycles avoided to preserve binding activity. The polyclonal format provides broad epitope coverage of the target, supporting reliable recognition of total MMP3 protein in cell lysates and tissue sections alike. Each lot is purified by affinity chromatography using the immunogen, helping to minimise off-target reactivity and background staining in downstream assays. The product is intended for research use only and is not validated for diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
