Application Data
(Image: Western blot of whole rat cerebellum homogenate stained with CPCA-GFAP, at dilution of 1:100,000. A prominent band running with an apparent SDS-PAGE molecular weight of ~50kDa corresponds to rodent GFAP. A lower band at ~45kDa is derived from the GFAP molecule.)

Related Product Information for anti-GFAP antibody
Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is the 10nm or intermediate filament protein found specifically in astrocytic cells in the central nervous system.
GFAP is strongly and specifically expressed in astrocytes and certain other astroglia in the central nervous system, in satellite cells in peripheral ganglia, and in non-myelinating Schwann cells in peripheral nerves. In many damage and disease states GFAP expression is heavily upregulated in astrocytes. In addition neural stem cells frequently strongly express GFAP. Antibodies to GFAP are therefore very useful as markers of astrocytic cells and neural stem cells.

Product Notes
The GFAP gfap (Catalog #AAA76524) is an Antibody produced from Chicken and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) reacts with Cat, Human, Mouse, Primate, Reactivity: Rat. and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, WB (Western Blot), IHC (Immunohistochemistry), ICC (Immunocytochemistry). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the GFAP gfap for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP), Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
