Anti-PVALB Antibody

This rabbit polyclonal primary antibody from Antibodies.com targets PVALB (parvalbumin), a calcium-binding protein expressed in fast-contracting skeletal muscle fibers and in a subset of inhibitory interneurons, including GABAergic neurons of the cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum. The unconjugated reagent is supplied as a 100 µl volume and is validated for western blot and immunohistochemistry workflows on human samples.

PVALB is widely used as a marker in neuroanatomy and muscle physiology studies. Researchers apply this antibody to map parvalbumin-positive interneuron populations, examine changes in inhibitory circuitry in neurological disease models, and characterize fast-twitch myofiber composition in muscle biopsies and tissue sections.

Host species is rabbit, clonality is polyclonal, and the antibody is provided unconjugated to support flexible detection chemistry, including secondary antibody pairing in immunofluorescence, chromogenic IHC, and standard immunoblotting. Store refrigerated at 2 to 8 degrees C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve activity.
