Background / Function
GFAP, a class-III intermediate filament, is a cell-specific marker that, during the development of the central nervous system, distinguishes astrocytes from other glial cells.Bongcam-Rudloff E., Nister M., Betsholtz C., Wang J.-L., Stenman G., Huebner K., Croce C.M., Westermark B.Cancer Res. 51:1553-1560(1991) Nielsen A.L., Holm I.E., Johansen M., Bonven B., Jorgensen P., Jorgensen A.L.J.

liquid
Storage
Shipped at 4°C. Upon delivery aliquot and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze.
Purity
Antibodies were produced by immunizing rabbits with synthetic peptide and KLH conjugates. Antibodies were purified by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific peptide.
