Anti-Tau (P206) Antibody

Raised in rabbit against a phosphopeptide corresponding to residue P206 of the microtubule-associated protein tau, this polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com is supplied at 1 mg/ml in phosphate buffered saline with 0.05% sodium azide at approximately pH 7.2. The antibody selectively recognizes tau phosphorylated at this epitope and is validated for Western blot and immunofluorescence workflows on mouse and rat tissue samples, providing a probe for tracking early-stage phosphorylation events that accumulate in neurofibrillary tangle pathology. Researchers in neuroscience and neurodegeneration labs apply this reagent to map the distribution of phospho-tau in hippocampal and cortical neurons, and to characterize paired helical filament preparations from transgenic rodent models of tauopathy. Each vial contains 100 µl of unconjugated antibody, ready for downstream labeling with fluorophore- or enzyme-coupled secondary reagents. Aliquot upon receipt to limit freeze-thaw cycles, store refrigerated, and protect from light to preserve reagent activity.
