TIMP4 Antibody

Mouse anti-TIMP4 antibody, Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-4, Metalloproteinase inhibitor 4, TIMP-4, TIMP 4, TIMP4 antibody, anti-TIMP-4 antibody

Anti-TIMP4 (MOUSE) Monoclonal Antibody was produced in mouse by repeated immunizations with full length human TIMP4 protein followed by hybridoma development.

Anti-TIMP4 was purified from clarified mouse ascetic fluid by Protein A chromatography followed by extensive dialysis against the buffer stated above. TIMP4 antibody is specific for human TIMP4 protein. This antibody reacts with human TIMP4 in tissue sections of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded In ELISAs and Native-PAGE, this antibody does not cross-react with recombinant human TIMP-1, -2 or -3. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with TIMP4 from human and mouse sources based on the immunizing sequence. Cross-reactivity with TIMP-4 from other sources has not been determined.

Store vial at -20° C or below prior to opening. This vial contains a relatively low volume of reagent (25 μL) . To minimize loss of volume dilute 1:10 by adding 225 μL of the buffer stated above directly to the vial. Recap, mix thoroughly and briefly centrifuge to collect the volume at the bottom of the vial. Use this intermediate dilution when calculating final dilutions as recommended below. Store the vial at -20°C or below after dilution. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing.

Anti-TIMP4 antibody has been tested for use in ELISA, Native - Western, and IHC (P) . SDS-PAGE - Western Blot not useful for endogenous detection. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user.
