NPC1 Antibody : HRP (OAPB00893-HRP)

All conjugated antibodies should be stored in light-protected vials or covered with a light protecting material (i.e. aluminum foil) . Conjugated antibodies are stable for at least 12 months at 4C. If longer storage is desired (24 months), conjugates may be diluted with up to 50% glycerol and stored at -20C to -80C. Freezing and thawing conjugated antibodies will compromise enzyme activity as well as antibody binding.

NPC1 antibody can be used for detection of NPC1 by Western blot at 1 - 2 ug/ml. (Optimal dilution should be determined by user) . This antibody can also be used for immunohistochemistry starting at 2.5 ug/ml. For immunofluorescence start at 20 ug/ml. Human kidney tissue lysate can be used as positive control.
