Anti-PCT Antibody [H6]

The Anti-PCT Antibody [H6] from Antibodies.com is a murine monoclonal IgG2b reagent directed against procalcitonin, the 116-amino-acid calcitonin precursor whose circulating concentrations rise sharply during systemic bacterial infection and sepsis. Produced in mouse and supplied as an unconjugated preparation at 1 mg per vial, the H6 clone selectively binds human procalcitonin with no cross-reactivity to mature calcitonin or calcitonin gene-related peptide, supporting Western blot detection of recombinant antigen alongside quantitative immunoassay formats including ELISA, chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA), and immunoturbidimetric measurement (ITM). Because circulating PCT is clinically interpreted against low baseline values in healthy adults and elevated readings above 0.5 ng/mL that suggest bacterial infection, an antibody anchored by clone H6 enables quantitative work spanning the analytically relevant range of this sepsis biomarker. Aliquot the antibody upon arrival, refrigerate at 2-8 degrees C, and protect from light while avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve binding activity for in vitro research use.
