Anti-NGF mAb<br />
Product Size Cat.# Price ($)<br />
Anti-NGF mAb 20 µg G1132 238.00<br />
For Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.<br />
100 µg G1131 975.00<br />
Description: Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a member of the neurotrophin<br />
family of growth factors. NGF is expressed in sympathetic and sensory-<br />
innervated peripheral tissues and mediates phosphorylation of specific<br />
intracellular proteins. At the cellular level, NGF expression has been<br />
demonstrated in lymphocytes, smooth muscle cells, epithelial cells, astrocytes,<br />
fibroblasts and Schwann cells. Anti-NGF mAb was designed as a specific<br />
marker of NGF in Western blotting, ELISA and immunostaining applications.<br />
Features:<br />
• Immunogen: Purified murine NGF, 2.5S.<br />
• Antibody Form: Rat IgG (clone 1G3) provided at 1mg/ml as frozen liquid<br />
in PBS containing no preservatives.<br />
• Specificity: Reacts with human NGF, 2.5S mNGF and to a lesser extent<br />
with 7S mNGF. Cross-reacts between mammalian species.<br />
• Activity: The Anti-NGF mAb exhibits a half-maximal titer of less than or<br />
equal to 250ng/ml in an ELISA protocol using 100ng of 2.5S mNGF (Cat.#<br />
G5141).<br />
Storage Conditions: Store at –20°C.<br />

Anti-Human NT-3 pAb<br />
Product Size Cat.# Price ($)<br />
Anti-Human NT-3 pAb<br />
For Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.<br />
200 µg G1651 740.00<br />
Description: Neurotrophin-3, a 27kDa homodimer that shares high sequence<br />
homology with NGF, BDNF, NT-4 and NT-5, influences many neuron types<br />
in the central and peripheral nervous system. NT-3 is also highly conserved<br />
across species. Anti-Human NT-3 pAb is generated in chickens and purified<br />
using a proprietary polyethylene glycol procedure. IgY, the 180kDa chicken<br />
IgG homolog, can be produced in chickens against certain biological antigens<br />
that fail to elicit a humoral immune response in rabbits or other mammals due<br />
to species relatedness. This antibody is highly specific for NT-3 in a variety of<br />
mammalian species.<br />
Features:<br />
• Immunogen: Human recombinant NT-3.<br />
• Antibody Form: Chicken IgY is provided at 0.5mg/ml in 0.1M NaCl,<br />
0.01M K 2HPO 4 and 50μg/ml gentamicin.<br />
• Specificity: Cross-reactive with human and mouse NT-3 and is presumed<br />
to cross-react with rat and Rhesus monkey NT-3 based on factor sequence<br />
identity across species; does not cross-react with BDNF or NGF and has<br />
limited cross-reactivity to NT-4.<br />
Storage Conditions: Store at 4°C.<br />
