Anti-Synaptophysin Antibody

From Antibodies.com, this Rabbit polyclonal reagent targets Synaptophysin (also known as major synaptic vesicle protein p38 / SYP) and is supplied at 50 µl per vial with a protein concentration of 1.0 mg/mL. The antibody was raised against a synthesized peptide derived from human Synaptophysin and affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by epitope-specific affinity chromatography, yielding a polyclonal, unconjugated rabbit IgG preparation. According to the supplier specification sheet, it is formulated in phosphate-buffered saline (without Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺), pH 7.4, containing 150 mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol. The product is shipped at 4 °C and should be aliquoted and stored at –20 °C upon arrival, with repeated freeze/thaw cycles avoided to preserve activity. Validated applications are Western blot (WB) and immunohistochemistry (IHC), and the antibody is reported to detect endogenous levels of total Synaptophysin protein in Human, Mouse and Rat samples, making it suitable for cross-species neuroscience and synaptic vesicle research. The reagent is intended for research use only and is not validated for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
