Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects lhb protein in zebrafish samples and is validated for IHC.
In zebrafish, lhb encodes the beta subunit of luteinizing hormone, a pituitary gonadotropin that pairs with the common glycoprotein hormone alpha subunit. LH acts on the gonads to drive steroid hormone production and final gamete maturation and ovulation, and zebrafish is widely used to study its role in fish reproduction.

|---|---|
| Host / Clonality / Isotype | Rabbit / Polyclonal / Rabbit IgG |
| Reactivity | Zebrafish |
| Form | Lyophilized |
| Formulation | Per vial: 4 mg trehalose; 0.9 mg NaCl; 0.2 mg Na2HPO4 |
| Storage | As supplied: −20 °C for up to 12 months from receipt. After reconstitution: 4 °C for up to 1 month, or aliquot and keep at −20 °C for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles. |
Validated Applications
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Zebrafish) |
|---|
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): zebrafish hypophysis tissue, zebrafish hypothalamus tissue, zebrafish ovary tissue, zebrafish testis tissue, zebrafish kidney tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Immunogen
Recombinant zebrafish LHB fragment (Leu24–Tyr140), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with zebrafish. UniProt describes lhb protein as a secreted protein.

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).
