Specificity

Recognizes Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF). By dot blot, less than 0.1% cross-reactivity against mouse NGF, recombinant human NT3 or neurotrophin 4.

Immunogen

A 10 amino acid peptide corresponding to the amino-terminal of mouse Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) coupled to ovalbumin. The sequence is H2N-HSDPARRGEL-COOH.

Application

Anti-Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor Antibody is an antibody against Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor for use in ELISA, IH & WB.
Immunohistochemistry: 1-10 μg/mL (see suggested protocol).

Immunoblotting: 1-10 μg/mL. BDNF is not easily extracted in standard buffers. Dissected tissues should be homogenized in 10 volumes of 100mM phosphate buffer containing 1mM EDTA, 2M guanidine hydrochloride (pH7.2), and three protease inhibitors, 10mM N-ethylmaleimide, 0.36mM pepstatin, and 1mM PMSF. Homogenates are then sonicated and centrifuged at 46K x g for 30 minutes at 4°C. BDNF migrates as 18 kDa, with a homodimer at ~27-30 kDa.

ELISA (one-site): 1-10 μg/mL

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.
