Overview
This polyclonal anti-PTX3 antibody raised in Rabbit, conjugated with FITC. Designed to detect PTX3 in Human for cardiovascular research.
Key elements and design rationale
- Immunogen: Recombinant Human Pentraxin-related protein PTX3 protein (99-164AA) — 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.
Biological background
PTX3 (also: AI607804, Pentaxin 3, Pentaxin-related protein PTX3, Pentraxin 3 long, Pentraxin-related gene, Pentraxin-related gene rapidly induced by IL-1 beta, Pentraxin-related protein PTX3, PTX3, PTX3_HUMAN, TNF alpha-induced protein 5, TNFAIP5, TSG-14, TSG14, Tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 5, Tumor necrosis factor-inducible gene 14 protein, Tumor necrosis factor-inducible protein TSG-14) — studied in Human systems. Expression, localization, and PTMs vary across cell types and disease states. Consult UniProt, NCBI Gene, and primary literature for current PTX3 annotation relevant to cardiovascular.
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.
PTX3 is a protein studied in Human biology. This polyclonal antibody raised in Rabbit detects PTX3 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 PTX3; (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).
