Anti-Glial Derived Neurotrophic Factor Antibody

Recombinant human GDNF.

Anti-Glial Derived Neurotrophic Factor Antibody detects level of Glial Derived Neurotrophic Factor & has been published & validated for use in WB.

Immunoblotting: 1:3,000 using TBS (not PBS) and blocking is best performed with IgG free BSA highest quality. Antibody recognizes ~75 kDa band in non-acid-treated serum samples corresponding to the GDNF/GDNFR complex. When samples are acid treated, a prominent 32 kDa (dimer) and weaker 16 kDa monomer are observed. Acid treatment: homogenized tissue samples in PBS are acid-treated by adding 1N HCL until the pH is less than 3.0 (pH paper strips), incubated 15 minutes at room temperature and then neutralized by adding 1N NaOH to pH 7.6.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.
