Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects caspase-9 (gene casp9) in zebrafish samples and is validated for Western blot and IHC.
Caspase-9 is the initiator caspase of the intrinsic, mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. When cytochrome c is released from mitochondria, it binds Apaf-1 to form the apoptosome, which activates caspase-9; caspase-9 then cleaves and activates caspase-3 and caspase-7. It is a standard marker in studies of DNA damage-induced and stress-induced apoptosis.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Zebrafish) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Zebrafish) |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): zebrafish head tissue, whole female zebrafish tissue, whole male zebrafish tissue, zebrafish embryo tissue.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): zebrafish liver tissue, zebrafish muscle tissue, zebrafish eye tissue, zebrafish colon tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Immunogen
Recombinant zebrafish Caspase 9/CASP9 fragment (Lys18–Gln417), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with zebrafish. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
