Specificity Specific for endogenous levels of the propeptide portion of the ~180 kDa collagen I alpha 1 polypeptide in human lung fibroblast extract. The antibody also works well for immunohistochemistry on paraformaldehyde-fixed sections with a simple antigen-retrieval protocol (incubate slides for 20 minutes at 90° C in 10 mM sodium citrate (pH 6.0)/ 0.1 % Tween-20). Note that in paraffin sections of formaldehyde-fixed fibrotic mouse lung tissue, the antibody recognizes collagen I molecules that are still associated with the cells in which they were synthesized.
