Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects catalase in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for flow cytometry, ICC/IF, IHC and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 59.8 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 60 kDa.
Catalase (CAT) is a heme enzyme, mainly located in peroxisomes, that breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. By removing H2O2, it protects cells from oxidative damage, and it is one of the most commonly measured antioxidant enzymes in studies of oxidative stress, aging and metabolism.
