Anti-Met-Enkephalin Antibody

Human Methionine enkephalin (Met-Enkephalin) is a small 5 amino acid peptide cleaved from the precursor pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) . Met-Enkephalin is an endogenous opioid peptide that interacts with opioid receptors and produces analgesic effects.

Our Anti-Met-Enkephalin rabbit polyclonal primary antibody detects human, mouse, and rat Met-Enkephalin, and is affinity-purified. It is validated for use in ICC, IHC-Frozen, IHC-Paraffin-embedded.

Spin vial briefly before opening. Reconstitute in 0.05 mL of sterile-filtered PBS (pH 7.4) . Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material. At least 12 months after purchase at 2-8°C (lyophilized formulations) . After reconstitution, aliquot and store at -20°C for a higher stability and at 2-8°C with an appropriate antibacterial agent.Avoid freeze-thaw cycles

Human; mouse; rat. Met-Enkephalin is highly conserved so cross-reactivity with other species is expected. Cross-reactivity with other opioid peptides is as follows: with Leu-enkephalin 5.8%; with beta-lipotropin 0.01%; with beta-endorphin 0.01%.
