The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography.
Concentration:
0.5 mg/ml
Storage & Handling:
The antibody solution should be stored undiluted at 4°C.
Application:
WB - Quality tested ELISA*, IHC (frozen) * - *These applications have been reported in the literature.
Application Notes:
ELISA: The purified 1F07-2C01 antibody is useful in a mouse VEGF-A ELISA or ELISPOT assay. Western Blotting: It is suggested to use 0.5-2 µg/ml for WB. Immunohistochemistry: Clone 1F07-2C01 is recommended for IHC on saponin-treated frozen tissue sections at a concentration range of 5-10 µg/ml.
It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Description:
VEGF-A, also known as VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor), is the founding member of the family including VEGF (VEGF-A), VEGF-B, VEGF-C, VEGF-D, VEGF-E, and PIGF. Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are a family of secreted polypeptides with a highly conserved receptor-binding cystine-knot structure similar to that of the platelet-derived growth factors.VEGF-A has important roles in mammalian vascular development and in diseases involving abnormal growth of blood vessels such as tumor-related angiogenesis.VEGF-A is produced by diverse cell types, including aortic vascular smooth muscle cells, keratinocytes, macrophages and many tumor cells. Oxygen tension is a key physiological regulator of VEGF-A gene expression.
