| Species reactivity: |
Due to limited knowledge and inability for testing each and every species, the reactivity of the antibody may extend to other species which are not listed hereby, Bovine |
| Specificity and cross-reactivity: |
Clone 2E1 (This item) may be used in conjunction with clones 1B4 for increased sensitivity when used in immunohistology, During development of the central nervous system, GFAP distinguishes astrocytes from other glial cells, It also plays a role in mitosis by adjusting the filament network present in the cell, It is a progressive leukoencephalopathy resulting in mental and physical retardation, It is involved in various cellular functions, Since it is not possible to test each and every species our knowledge on the corss reactivity of the antibodies is limited, This particular antibody might cross react with speacies outside of the listed ones, _x000D__x000D_ _x000D__x000D_Defects in GFAP are a cause of Alexander disease, a class III intermediate filament, a rare disorder of the central nervous system affecting mostly males, cell communication and the functioning of the blood-brain barrier, dementia, or GFAP, seizures and early death, such as cell structure and movement, GFAP This item recognises glial fibrillary acidic protein, _x000D_ |
