Rabbit anti-Mouse Procalcitonin (PCT) Polyclonal Antibody | anti-PCT antibody
Polyclonal Antibody to Procalcitonin (PCT)
Immunocytochemistry in formalin fixed cells: 5-20ug/mL
Immunohistochemistry in formalin fixed frozen section: 5-20ug/mL
Immunohistochemistry in paraffin section: 5-20ug/mL
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.

NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes the peptide hormones calcitonin, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and katacalcin. Alternative splicing of the mRNA results in multiple variants that encode either calcitonin or CGRP preproproteins. Post-translational processing of the calcitonin and CGRP propeptides results in either calcitonin and katacalcin, or CGRP, respectively. Calcitonin and katacalcin modulate calcium levels in the blood stream. CGRP can function as a vasodilator and play a role in the transmission of pain. The human homolog of CGRP was found to have antimicrobial activity. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2015]
Uniprot Description
CALCA: Calcitonin causes a rapid but short-lived drop in the level of calcium and phosphate in blood by promoting the incorporation of those ions in the bones. Belongs to the calcitonin family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The PCT calca (Catalog #AAA2090472) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Polyclonal Antibody to Procalcitonin (PCT) reacts with Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Procalcitonin (PCT) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunoprecipitation (IP). Western Blot: 0.5-2ug/mL Immunocytochemistry in formalin fixed cells: 5-20ug/mL Immunohistochemistry in formalin fixed frozen section: 5-20ug/mL Immunohistochemistry in paraffin section: 5-20ug/mL. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PCT calca for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Procalcitonin (PCT), Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
