Anti-TIMP2 Antibody

Raised in rabbit and purified by affinity chromatography against the immunogen, this polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com targets tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 2 (TIMP2) and is supplied as an unconjugated, liquid formulation at a concentration of 1.0 mg/mL in a 50 µL aliquot. The immunogen is a recombinant human TIMP2 protein, and the antibody is reported to detect the endogenous total TIMP2 protein in samples from human, mouse, and rat origin. Validated applications include Western blotting (WB), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence (ICC/IF), making it a flexible choice for studies of extracellular matrix remodeling, MMP regulation, and related cell signaling pathways. The buffer composition is phosphate-buffered saline (without Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺) at pH 7.4, supplemented with 150 mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide as a preservative, and 50% glycerol for cryoprotection. For stability, the vial is shipped at 4 °C and, on receipt, should be aliquoted and stored at –20 °C, with freeze/thaw cycles avoided. The product is intended for research use only and is not validated for diagnostic or therapeutic applications, and typical lead time is 6–9 business days from the Antibodies.com distribution point in St. Louis, MO. Within the Antibodies.com primary antibody portfolio, this reagent is identified under catalog number A35181 and is intended for laboratory investigators who need a robust, broadly cross-reactive anti-TIMP2 polyclonal for both imaging and immunoblotting workflows.
