Monoclonal Anti-β-Amyloid antibody produced in mouse

clone BAM-10, ascites fluid

Synonym:Anti-A-BETA, Anti-Amyloid β Precursor Protein
MDL number:MFCD00803867

Description

Immunogensynthetic β-amyloid peptide (1-40), conjugated to KLH.
SpecificityThe antibody is useful in immunohistochemistry, immunoblotting,1 ELISA, and competitive ELISA. Also, this antibody has been used to neutralize Aβ assemblies in brains of transgenic mice expressing a mutant form of amyloid precursor protein,2 and for in vivo deep tissue imaging using near-IR optical spectrum.3
 The antibody reacts specifically with β-amyloid protein. The epitope recognized by the antibody resides within amino acids 1-12 of the β-amyloid protein. It specifically stains amyloid plaques within the cortex and amyloid deposits in blood vessels using formic acid-treated, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded, and Methacarn-fixed sections of human Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain tissue.
