Anti-MMP8 Antibody

Manufactured by Antibodies.com, this affinity-purified rabbit polyclonal reagent targets matrix metalloproteinase 8 (MMP8) and is supplied at a concentration of 1.0 mg/mL in a 50 µl volume of phosphate-buffered saline (without Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺), pH 7.4, containing 150 mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide, and 50% glycerol. The unconjugated antibody was raised against a synthetic peptide of human MMP8 and detects endogenous levels of total MMP8 following affinity purification on the immunogen. Validated applications include Western Blot (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC), and the antibody has been characterized for reactivity with human, mouse, and rat samples, making it a versatile choice for cross-species studies of neutrophil collagenase expression. As a polyclonal host raised in rabbit, the reagent offers broad epitope coverage and is shipped at 4 °C; upon arrival it should be aliquoted and stored at –20 °C, with repeated freeze/thaw cycles avoided to preserve activity.
