Overview
This polyclonal anti-KLK8 antibody raised in Rabbit, conjugated with FITC. Designed to detect KLK8 in Human for signal transduction research.
Key elements and design rationale
- Immunogen: Recombinant Human Kallikrein-8 protein (87-241AA) — determines epitope; confirm sample prep compatibility.
- Host (Rabbit): Requires anti-rabbit-IgG secondary matching isotype IgG.
- Polyclonal: Multiple epitopes = robust signal; lot-to-lot variability — include controls.
- Isotype (IgG): Match secondary, Protein A/G, and isotype controls to IgG.
- Purification (Protein G purification): Enriches Ig classes; reduces non-specific background.
- FITC: Direct fluorescence (Ex490/Em525); protect from light; use antifade.

Expression, localization, and PTMs vary across cell types and disease states. Consult UniProt, NCBI Gene, and primary literature for current KLK8 annotation relevant to signal transduction.
Common research applications
- Refer to product documentation for confirmed application data.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Isotype controls: IgG from Rabbit at equivalent concentration.
- Cross-reactivity: Polyclonal: validate with KO/KD controls.
- Matrix effects: Verify dilution linearity in your sample matrix.
- Reactivity: Confirmed for Human; extrapolation requires validation.
This product is a polyclonal antibody purified from rabbit antiserum.
KLK8 is a protein studied in Human biology. This polyclonal antibody raised in Rabbit detects KLK8 in immunoassay applications, IgG isotype.
Reported reactive against Human. Immunogen from Human. Cross-reactivity with untested species requires empirical confirmation.
Application data not specified. Consult datasheet or contact BioHippo support.
FITC (Ex490/Em525): direct fluorescence; protect from light; use antifade for sections.
(1) Isotype control: IgG from Rabbit; (2) Positive control: lysate/cell line expressing KLK8; (3) Negative control: siRNA KD or KO; (4) Dilution linearity in your sample matrix.
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).
