Specifications
- HOST SPECIES: Mouse
- SPECIES REACTIVITY: Bovine, Chicken, Human, Mouse, Pig, Rabbit, Rat
- IMMUNOGEN: GFAP isolated from pig spinal cord was used as the immunogen for this Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein antibody.
- CONJUGATE: Unconjugated
- TESTED APPLICATIONS: Flow, IF, IHC, WB
- APPLICATION NOTE: Flow Cytometry: 0.5-1 ug/million cells in 0.1ml
Immunofluorescence: 1-2 ug/ml
Western blot: 1-2 ug/ml
Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 0.25-0.5 ug/ml for 30 min at RT (1)
Prediluted format: incubate for 30 min at RT (2)
The optimal dilution of the Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein antibody for each application should be determined by the researcher.1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM Citrate Buffer, pH 6.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.
2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.

Background
- Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein is specifically found in astroglia, making it a very popular marker for localizing benign astrocyte and neoplastic cells of glial origin in the central nervous system. Ab to GFAP is useful in differentiating primary gliomas from metastatic lesions in the brain and for documenting astrocytic differentiation in tumors outside the CNS.
