Anti-PRDX2 Antibody

Raised in rabbit against the Peroxiredoxin 2 (PRDX2) antigen, this unconjugated polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com is supplied as 100 µl of a 1 mg/ml stock in PBS containing 0.1% sodium azide and 50% glycerol, a cryoprotective buffer that shields the antibody from freeze-thaw damage during cold storage.

Peroxiredoxin 2 is a thiol-dependent peroxidase that scavenges reactive oxygen species and limits oxidative damage in erythrocytes, where it is the third most abundant cytoplasmic protein, and in a range of other tissues. Validated reactivity covers Human, Mouse, and Rat samples, making this polyclonal reagent helpful for cross-species studies of redox biology, erythrocyte maturation, and oxidative-stress responses in cancer and inflammatory disease models.

For detection workflows, the antibody has been validated in Western blot (WB), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and immunofluorescence (IF) applications, supporting both protein-level confirmation in lysates and spatial localization in fixed tissue sections. Store refrigerated at 4°C in the supplied glycerol buffer; aliquoting is recommended to minimize repeated freeze-thaw cycles and preserve long-term activity. The polyclonal format provides recognition of multiple epitopes on PRDX2, which can improve signal in samples where epitope masking is a concern.

Researchers studying antioxidant defenses, sickle cell disease, hemolytic conditions, or tumor redox biology can pair this reagent with appropriate HRP- or fluorophore-conjugated secondary antibodies for chromogenic or fluorescent readouts.
