Anti-PCT Antibody [D6]

The Antibodies.com Anti-PCT Antibody [D6] is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 reagent that specifically recognizes procalcitonin (PCT), the 116-amino-acid calcitonin precursor (~13 kDa) used as a clinical biomarker for bacterial infection, sepsis risk stratification, and antibiotic stewardship decisions. Clone D6 binds an epitope on the intact procalcitonin polypeptide, making it well-suited as a capture or detection component in quantitative immunoassays run on clinical chemistry analyzers. Validated applications include Western blot (WB), ELISA, chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA), and immunoturbidimetric methods (ITM), supporting research workflows and translational assay development. The antibody is supplied as an unconjugated preparation in a 1 mg vial, with a recommended storage at -20 °C in working aliquots to preserve binding activity across freeze-thaw cycles; repeated freeze-thaw should be avoided and the vial protected from light. Pairing clone D6 with a non-competing anti-PCT monoclonal enables a matched antibody pair for PCT quantification in the low-ng/mL clinical decision range.
