Anti-NTF4 Antibody

This unconjugated rabbit polyclonal IgG antibody targets Neurotrophin-4 (NTF4), a neurotrophic factor in the nerve growth factor family that supports the survival and differentiation of specific neuronal populations in developing and adult tissues.

Provided by Antibodies.com as a 50 µl liquid aliquot, this primary antibody was raised in rabbits and is intended for Western blot analysis. The reagent is affinity-purified and validated on human and mouse cell and tissue lysates, confirming reactivity across both species without the need for additional cross-adsorption.

Because the conjugate is unconjugated, the antibody can be paired with a secondary antibody chosen by the investigator for chemiluminescent or fluorescent readout. Suggested uses include Western blot evaluation of NTF4 expression in neuronal cell lines, primary neuron cultures, brain tissue homogenates, and peripheral tissues where neurotrophin signaling has been studied. For best results, aliquot on receipt, store at -20 °C in a manual defrost freezer, and protect the vial from light when it is not in use; repeated freeze-thaw cycles should be avoided to preserve binding activity.

Each lot is quality-controlled by Western blot to confirm specificity and titer prior to release, giving researchers consistent band patterns across independent experiments. An IgG isotype and polyclonal profile are useful when broad epitope coverage is preferred over the narrow specificity of a monoclonal reagent.
