Rabbit anti-CD31 Antibody, rabbit anti-PECAM-1 antibody, Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule, PECAM-1, EndoCAM, GPIIA', PECA1, CD31 Antibody, PECAM1 Antibody, CD31/PECAM1 Antibody

This antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal domain of rat CD31 protein.

CD31 PECAM1 antibody is directed against rat CD31 protein. The product is delipidated and defibrinated antiserum. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with CD31 from rat, human, and mouse based on a 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Reactivity against homologues from other sources is not known.

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.

CD31 antibody has been tested for use in ELISA, immunohistochemistry, and by western blot. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately 80 kDa in size corresponding to CD31 protein by western blotting in the appropriate stimulated tissue or cell lysate or extract.
