After birth, During pregnancy increased levels of AFP may indicate neural tube defects such as spina bifida, It binds and transports various ligands such as bilirubin, It is a 68kD plasma protein found in fetuses over four weeks old, _x000D_ _x000D_Elevated AFP levels are indicative of certain cancers, _x000D_ _x000D_This item does not cross-react with human albumin or with other human serum proteins, a member of the albuminoid superfamily, cancer of the testes or ovaries or a malignant teratoma, fatty acids, heavy metals and various drugs, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma, plasma levels drop to trace amounts in healthy adults, produced by the yolk sac and the fetal liver, steroids, while decreased levels could indicate Down's syndrome, with the highest concentration reached during the 12th to 16th week of gestation, ALPHA FETOPROTEIN This item recognises alpha fetoprotein (AFP) |

Immunohistology - Frozen (IHC) |
| Description: |
Polyclonal antibodies generally are more stable and retain their reactivity under unfavorable conditions, Polyclonal antibodies have series of advantages - larger batches can be supplied at a time, Properly used, To obtain more detailed information on productone, please, refer to the full product datasheet, the time needed for production is considerably shorter, they are inexpensive to manufacture and respectively to buy, this antibody will ensure excellent and reproducible results with guaranteed success for the applications that it is tested in, productone is a polyclonal antibody of high purity and binding affinity for the antigen that it is risen against |
| Advisory: |
For antibodies that are in liquid form or reconstituted lyophilized antibodies small amounts could become entrapped on the seal or the walls of the tube, Prior to use briefly centrifuge the vial to gather all the solution on the bottom, avoid cycles of freezing and thawing, please, In order to retain the quality and the affinity of productone unchanged |
